A novel small molecule chaperone of rod opsin and its potential therapy for retinal degeneration
Mutations that lead to misfolding of rhodopsin can cause retinitis pigmentosa. Here, the authors carry out a high throughput screen to identify a small molecule chaperone of rod opsin, and show that it protects mouse models of retinitis pigmentosa from retinal degeneration.
