Abstract excerpt
Several retinal mRNAs encoding photoreceptor-specific proteins have been examined in congenic lines of mice carrying different allelic combinations at the rd and rds loci, to determine how mRNA expression is affected by the presence of both the rd and rds genes together or by the presence of one or two rd and rds alleles in the visual cells. Slot blots with retinal RNA from 9 to 30 days old C3H +/+, +/+; rd/+,...
