OMIA:000830-9615 : Retinal atrophy, progressive, generic in Canis lupus familiaris (dog) |
In other species: domestic cat , sheep
Categories: Vision / eye phene
Single-gene trait/disorder: unknown
Disease-related: yes
Key variant is published: no
Cross-species summary: Progressive, non-inflammatory degeneration or dysplasia of rods and cones or just of rods, leading to firstly night blindness, and later to blindness during the day.
Species-specific description: Many different forms of progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) exist and more than 10 different genes have been identified so far in dogs to have likely causal variants for PRA. Please review OMIA for other variants. Information relating to PRA due to a variant in the CNGB1 gene was previously listed here but has been moved to 'OMIA:002723-9615 : Retinal atrophy, progressive, CNGB1-related in Canis lupus familiaris' [16/06/2023].
Molecular basis: Extensive molecular investigations have excluded the opsin gene as a candidate locus for this disorder in Miniature Poodles, English Cocker Spaniels or Labrador Retrievers (Gould et al., 1995).
