Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: More than 50 genes are reported as causative genes of autosomal recessive (ar) retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and cone-rod dystrophy (CRD). It is challenging to identify causative mutations for arRP and arCRD. The purpose of the present study was to investigate clinical and genetic features of two siblings with early-onset retinal dystrophy. METHODS: Whole-exome sequencing was conducted for the two affected...
