Loss of Gap Junction Delta-2 (GJD2) gene orthologs leads to refractive error in zebrafish

Loss of Gap Junction Delta-2 (GJD2) gene orthologs leads to refractive error in zebrafish

Quint et al. use zebrafish lines deficient in one of two orthologs of the Gap Junction Delta-2 (GJD2) gene, which is associated with myopia by genome-wide association studies. They link gjd2 with refractive error and report evidence to suggest that gjd2a plays a role in ocular biometry whilst gjd2b,...
