Retinitis pigmentosa 55(RP55)

MedGen UID:
462158
•Concept ID:
C3150808
•
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: RP55
 
Gene (location): ARL6 (3q11.2)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0013312
OMIM®: 613575

Definition

Any retinitis pigmentosa in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the ARL6 gene. [from MONDO]

Clinical features

From HPO
Rod-cone dystrophy
MedGen UID:
1632921
•Concept ID:
C4551714
•
Disease or Syndrome
An inherited retinal disease subtype in which the rod photoreceptors appear to be more severely affected than the cone photoreceptors. Typical presentation is with nyctalopia (due to rod dysfunction) followed by loss of mid-peripheral field of vision, which gradually extends and leaves many patients with a small central island of vision due to the preservation of macular cones.
