A hypomorphic variant in EYS detected by genome-wide association study contributes toward retinitis pigmentosa

Koji Nishiguchi et al. identify three genetic variants within the EYS gene that are associated with retinitis pigmentosa using a genome-wide association study. They demonstrate that one of these variants (G843E) causes retinal dysfunction in zebrafish, suggesting a causal role for EYS in retinitis p...
