Abstract excerpt
Rod-cone dystrophies (retinitis pigmentosa [RP]) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited retinal disorders characterized by photoreceptor degeneration. RP1 is a major gene underlying autosomal dominant (ad) RP, though prevalence figures vary depending on the origin of the cases from 0-10% of all adRP. Some mutations in RP1 also lead to autosomal recessive (ar) RP. Herein, we review all...
