This gene is on the Manchester Genetic Retinal Degeneration Conditions panel (covers known genes for isolated progessive retinal degeneration, Leber congenital amaurosis, macular dystrophy, achromatopsia, congenital stationary night blindness as well as the two most common causes of syndromic blindess Usher and Bardet-Biedl syndromes and additional syndromes including Joubert, Senior-Loken, and Cohen syndrome.Created: 2 Jun 2016, 8:06 a.m.
Cone rod dystrophy. Rare novel homozygous frameshift mutation found in isolated Saudi CORD patient and novel homozygous splice site mutation in second isolated Saudi CORD patient. However these have never been replicated and pathogenicity never established unequivocally. In my opinion there is insufficient evidenceCreated: 1 Jun 2016, 9:52 a.m.
