A frequent variant in the Japanese population determines quasi-Mendelian inheritance of rare retinal ciliopathy

Genetic variants in RP1 can cause hereditary retinal degeneration (HRD). Here, in a genomic screen of 331 Japanese HRD patients, the authors identify a near-polymorphic RP1 variant that causes Mendelian HRD in trans with an Alu insertion and otherwise is associated with HRD according to a complex mo...

Sumario:Genetic variants in RP1 can cause hereditary retinal degeneration (HRD). Here, in a genomic screen of 331 Japanese HRD patients, the authors identify a near-polymorphic RP1 variant that causes Mendelian HRD in trans with an Alu insertion and otherwise is associated with HRD according to a complex model of inheritance.
