We identified a novel mutation of the tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2) gene in a Japanese patient with gelatinous drop-like corneal dystrophy (GDLD). Genetic analysis revealed a novel homozygous mutation (c. 798delG, which may result in frameshift mutation p. Lys267SerfsTer4) in the TACSTD2 gene. This mutated gene was devoid of its original function in helping the claudin (CLDN) 1 and 7 proteins transfer from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane.
