2 May 2022
Abstract excerpt
Retinol dehydrogenase 12 (RDH12) is a small gene located on chromosome 14, encoding an enzyme capable of metabolizing retinoids. It is primarily located in photoreceptor inner segments and thereby is believed to have an important role in clearing excessive retinal and other toxic aldehydes produced by light exposure. Clinical features: RDH12-associated retinopathy has wide phenotypic variability; including...
