CLUAP1 variants cause non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa.

Clinical and molecular features of PRCD-associated retinopathy.

PURPOSE To describe the clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with biallelic disease-causing variants in the PRCD (Progressive Rod-Cone Degeneration) gene. METHODS Multicentre, retrospective cohort study of 19 patients from 13 families across nine reference centres in six countries. Clinical assessments in...

Identification of a Duplication in the RP17 Locus in an Individual With Pathogenic CEP290 Variants: Implications for RP17 Variant Classification

The cone dystrophy phenotype of the proband can be attributed to the CEP290 variants, whereas the novel RP17 duplication can be classified as likely benign based on the integrated evidence, emphasize the importance of modeling and functional studies for accurately classifying RP17-SVs and preventing misinterpretation i...

Genome sequencing reveals novel pathogenic deep-intronic PCDH15 variants, amenable to antisense oligonucleotide-based splice correction

The AP5B1 p.Leu785Pro variant is a frequent cause of late-onset macular dystrophy with variable extraocular manifestations

Findings further support AP5B1 as a cause of macular dystrophy, identify p.(Leu785Pro) as a relatively frequent pathogenic allele in individuals of European and Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, and expand the associated phenotypic spectrum to include both isolated macular dystrophy and possible syndromic presentations.
