Frequency and phenotypic characteristics of RPE65 mutations in the Chinese population
Background The retinoid isomerohydrolase RPE65 has received considerable attention worldwide since a successful clinical gene therapy was approved in 2017 as the first treatment for vision loss associated with RPE65-mediated inherited retinal disease ...

RPE65 c.393T>A, p.(Asn131Lys): Novel Sequence Variant Detected
Background. Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a monogenic, but genetically heterogenous disease, and at least 27 genes are implicated. This case report is aimed at providing evidence to link the novel variant RPE65 c.393T>A, p.(Asn131Lys), variant of ...

Background Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are clinically and genetically heterogenous disorders leading to visual impairment and blindness. Because gene therapy for RPE65-associated IRDs was recently approved, it is necessary to predict the carrier ...

Uncompetitive inhibition of RPE65 isomerase by (±)-RPE65-61 in the liposome-based assay.
All-trans-retinyl ester incorporated in liposomes was used as a substrate for purified RPE65 in the isomerase assay. (A). HPLC elution profile of the reaction products without inhibitor.

(±)-RPE65-61 inhibits retinol isomerase activity in vitro.
Bovine RPE microsomes (25 μg) were incubated with 0.2 μM of all-trans- [3H]-retinol in the presence or absence of (±)-RPE65-61 for 1h at 37°C. The generated retinoids were analyzed by HPLC coupled with flow scintillation analyzer.

Scheme of visual cycle and structure of inhibitor (±)-RPE65-61.
(A) Schematic representation of the visual cycle and the target of (±)-RPE65-61. The visual cycle includes a series of biochemical reactions, one of the key steps is the conversion of all-trans-retinyl ester to 11-cis-retinol by RPE65 isomerase.

Effect of (±)-RPE65-61 on protection against retinal degeneration.
LIRD caused the degeneration in the retina and RPE, which was rescued by inhibitor at the dose of 2 mg/kg in BALB/c mice. (A) Representative histological analysis for the retinas of (±)-RPE65-61 injected mice 5 days post-LIRD. Retinal cross-sections from
