Polygenic Disease and Retinitis Pigmentosa: Albinism Exacerbates Photoreceptor Degeneration Induced by the Expression of a Mutant Opsin in Transgenic Mice

Expression of a mouse opsin transgene containing three point mutations (V20G, P23H, and P27L; termed VPP) causes a progressive photoreceptor degeneration that resembles in many important respects that seen in patients with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa caused by a P23H point mutation. We h...
