Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To identify RHO mutations in patients with non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa (NS-RP). METHODS: A total of 143 probands (46 family history and 97 sporadic cases) with NS-RP were recruited from Southeast China. The coding exons and adjacent intronic regions of RHO were PCR-amplified and sequenced by Sanger sequencing. The candidate variant was evaluated by the guidelines of American College of Medical...
