Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To establish the DNA sequence of the coding regions of the human arrestin locus and to determine whether defects in this sequence are present among patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or types of stationary night blindness in addition to Oguchi disease. METHODS: The human genomic locus encoding arrestin was cloned in bacteriophage and P1 vectors. The sequence of the intron DNA flanking each exon was...
