Genes affected
NR2E3 (HGNC:7974): (nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group E member 3) This protein is part of a large family of nuclear receptor transcription factors involved in signaling pathways. Nuclear receptors have been shown to regulate pathways involved in embryonic development, as well as in maintenance of proper cell function in adults. Members of this family are characterized by discrete domains that function in DNA and ligand binding. This gene encodes a retinal nuclear receptor that is a ligand-dependent transcription factor. Defects in this gene are a cause of enhanced S cone syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.373C>G (p.R125G) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the NR2E3 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 373, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 125 to be replaced by a glycine (G). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
