ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To map the disease-causing gene in a Chinese family with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twenty-seven micro-satellite markers were randomly selected from the region around the known loci of causative genes, and haplotypes were determined by ABI3100 genetic analyzer. Two-point linkage analysis was performed using MLINK.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The Lod score of each marker vs adRP was below 1.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The phenotype of this family may not be caused by mutation of the known disease-causing genes.</p>
