661W is a retinal ganglion precursor-like cell line in which glaucoma-associated optineurin mutants induce cell death selectively

Abstract A photoreceptor cell line, 661W, derived from a mouse retinal tumor that expresses several markers of cone photoreceptor cells has been described earlier. However, these cells can be differentiated into neuronal cells. Here, we report that this cell line expressed certain markers specific t...
