Abstract excerpt
Purpose: To define genetic variants associated with variable severity of X-linked progressive retinal atrophy 1 (XLPRA1) caused by a five-nucleotide deletion in canine RPGR exon ORF15. Methods: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed in XLPRA1 phenotype informative pedigree. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was used for mutational analysis of genes within the candidate genomic region. Retinas of normal...
