Identification of a novel RHO heterozygous nonsense mutation in a Chinese family with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2021
Background To explore the molecular genetic cause of a four-generation autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa family in China. Methods Targeted region sequencing was performed to detect the potential mutation, and Sanger sequencing was used to validate ...

RPGR protein complex regulates proteasome activity and mediates store-operated calcium entry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ciliopathies are a group of genetically heterogeneous disorders, characterized by defects in cilia genesis or maintenance. Mutations in the RPGR gene and its interacting partners, RPGRIP1 and RPGRIP1L, cause ciliopathies, but the function of their ...

Long-Term Visual Field Progression in X-Linked Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients

open access: yesDiagnostics
We present an image that illustrates long-term visual field progression in patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP) due to the retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator (RPGR) and retinitis pigmentosa 2 protein (RP2) gene variants.

Structure‐Guided Engineering of a Cas12i Nuclease Unlocks Near‐PAMless Genome Editing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CRISPR‐Cas nucleases are limited by PAM requirements, restricting genome accessibility. Structure‐guided engineering of the compact Cas12i nuclease SF01 produced three variants with near‐PAMless, enabling efficient editing at diverse 5'‐NNTN‐3' sites. These nucleases expand the editable portion of the human genome more than fourfold, enabling efficient

New and emerging technologies for the treatment of inherited retinal diseases: a horizon scanning review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The horizon scanning review aimed to identify new and emerging technologies in development that have the potential to slow or stop disease progression and/or reverse sight loss in people with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs).
