The present invention relates to a novel macular degeneration marker and a method for diagnosing macular degeneration. More particularly, the present invention relates to a composition for diagnosing macular degeneration associated with a mutation of CFH, CFB, C3 and CFI genes, a diagnostic kit and a sanger sequencing, Such as pyrosequencing and HRM assays, which are capable of rapidly and accurately analyzing such gene mutations. The composition for the diagnosis of macular degeneration, the diagnostic kit and the diagnostic method according to the present invention are novel markers capable of effectively diagnosing macular degeneration, and are excellent in sensitivity, can be quickly and easily analyzed, . ≪ / RTI > |
