Abstract Objective Cone‐rod dystrophy (cord1) is a form of progressive retinal atrophy. It is linked to an RPGRIP1 genetic variant which is the third most common canine disease variant thus far. While the variant affects various breeds, it is highly prevalent in English Springer Spaniels (ESSs).

NMNAT1 mutations cause Leber congenital amaurosis.
Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is an infantile-onset form of inherited retinal degeneration characterized by severe vision loss(1,2). Two-thirds of LCA cases are caused by mutations in 17 known disease-associated genes(3) (Retinal Information Network ...

Purpose To present a case of type II oculocutaneous albinism (OCA2) diagnosed in infancy following the finding of nystagmus, and to review the diagnostic process and the management of this disorder. Observation A 4‐month‐old female presented with subtle, roving eyes that were initially attributed to normal development.

Gene therapy for Leber congenital amaurosis [PDF]
Introduction: Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a group of recessively inherited, early infantile-onset, severe rod-cone dystrophies that can result from defects in at least 25 genes, including RPE65, CEP290, RDH12, AIPL1 and GUCY2D. The possibility of

SARM1 depletion rescues NMNAT1-dependent photoreceptor cell death and retinal degeneration
Leber congenital amaurosis type nine is an autosomal recessive retinopathy caused by mutations of the NAD+ synthesis enzyme NMNAT1. Despite the ubiquitous expression of NMNAT1, patients do not manifest pathologies other than retinal degeneration. Here we

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated generation of a homozygous CRB2 knockout H1 human embryonic stem cell line
Mutations in the Crumbs homolog 2 (CRB2) gene cause various autosomal recessive genetic diseases, such as leber congenital amaurosis, retinitis pigmentosa and ventriculomegaly with cystic kidney disease.
