Genetic and Phenotypic Landscape of <i>PRPH2</i>-Associated Retinal Dystrophy in Japan

<i>Peripherin-2</i> (<i>PRPH2</i>) is one of the causative genes of inherited retinal dystrophy. While the gene is relatively common in Caucasians, reports from Asian ethnicities are limited. In the present study, we report 40 Japanese patients from 30 families with <i>...
