Two novel PDE6C gene mutations in Chinese family with achromatopsia.

Abstract excerpt

Background: Achromatopsia (ACHM) is an inherited retinal disease affecting the cone cell function. To date, six pathogenic genes of ACHM have been identified. However, the diagnostic and therapeutic methods of this disorder remain limited. Herein, to characterize the clinical features and genetic causes of three affected siblings in a Chinese family with ACHM, we used target next-generation sequencing (NGS) and...
