Leber Congenital Amaurosis 15; Lca15

Description

Autosomal recessive childhood-onset severe retinal dystrophy is a heterogeneous group of disorders affecting rod and cone photoreceptors simultaneously. The most severe cases are termed Leber congenital amaurosis, whereas the less aggressive forms are usually considered juvenile retinitis pigmentosa (summary by Gu et al., 1997).Mutation in TULP1 can also cause a form of autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP14 ).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of the genetic heterogeneity of Leber congenital amaurosis, see LCA1 (OMIM ); for retinitis pigmentosa, see {268000}.
