Genetic analysis of 36 individuals from 14 families identified eight different UBIAD1 mutations; five of these were novel D118G, L121F, S171P, G186R and D236E. Three previously reported mutations N102S, G17R and T175I were also found. The N102S mutation was suggested to be a mutation hotspot because of its frequency. No correlation was identified except for possibly the T175I mutation, which demonstrated diffuse corneal haze, typically without corneal crystals.
