Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the key rod phototransduction enzyme phosphodiesterase 6 (PDE6) are known to cause recessive retinitis pigmentosa in humans. Mouse models of mutant PDE6 represent a common approach to understanding the mechanisms of visual disorders related to PDE6 defects. Mutation N605S in the PDE6B subunit is linked to atypical retinal degeneration 3 (atrd3) in mice. We examined PDE6 in atrd3 mice and an atrd3...
