Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: RPGR ORF15 is an exon present almost exclusively in the retinal transcript of RPGR. It is purine-rich, repetitive and notoriously hard to sequence, but is a hotspot for mutations causing X-linked retinitis pigmentosa. METHODS: Long-read nanopore sequencing on MinION and Flongle flow cells was used to sequence RPGR ORF15 in genomic DNA from patients with inherited retinal dystrophy. A flow cell wash...
