Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mutations in the PROMININ-1 ( PROM1) gene are associated with inherited, non-syndromic vision loss. Here, we used CRISPR/Cas9 to induce truncating prom1 -null mutations in Xenopus laevis to create a disease model. We then tracked progression of retinal degeneration in these animals from the ages of 6 weeks to 3 years old. We found that retinal degeneration caused by prom1 -null is age-depen...
