CRB2 acts as a modifying factor of CRB1-related retinal dystrophies in mice
23 Feb 2014
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the CRB1 gene lead to retinal dystrophies ranging from Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) to early-onset retinitis pigmentosa (RP), due to developmental defects or loss of adhesion between photoreceptors and Müller glia cells, respectively. Whereas over 150 mutations have been found, no clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been established. Mouse Crb1 knockout retinas show a mild phenotype limited...
