Genes affected

UNC119 (HGNC:12565): (unc-119 lipid binding chaperone) This gene is specifically expressed in the photoreceptors in the retina. The encoded product shares strong homology with the C. elegans unc119 protein and it can functionally complement the C. elegans unc119 mutation. It has been localized to the photoreceptor synapses in the outer plexiform layer of the retina, and suggested to play a role in the mechanism of photoreceptor neurotransmitter release through the synaptic vesicle cycle. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

RSKR (HGNC:26314): (ribosomal protein S6 kinase related) Predicted to enable protein kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein phosphorylation. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification
