Insights into congenital stationary night blindness based on the structure of G90D rhodopsin

Insights into congenital stationary night blindness based on the structure of G90D rhodopsin.

We present active-state structures of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCRs) rhodopsin carrying the disease-causing mutation G90D. Mutations of G90 cause either retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB), a milder, non-progressive form of RP. Our analysis shows that the CSNB-causing G90D mutation introduces a salt bridge with K296. The mutant thus interferes with ...

Congenital Stationary Night Blindness Panel

Test code: OP1201 The Blueprint Genetics Congenital Stationary Night Blindness Panel is a 17 gene test for genetic diagnostics of patients with clinical suspicion of congenital stationary night blindness. The panel covers genes associated with autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant and X-linked forms of congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB). The clinical utility of this diagnostic panel...

Night blindness and the mechanism of constitutive signaling of mutant G90D rhodopsin.

The G90D rhodopsin mutation is known to produce congenital night blindness in humans. This mutation produces a similar condition in mice, because rods of animals heterozygous (D+) or homozygous (D+/+) for this mutation have decreased dark current and sensitivity, reduced Ca(2+), and accelerated values of tau(REC) and tau(D), similar to light-adapted wild-type (WT) rods. Our experiments indicate...
