By screening patients with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa for mutations in the rhodopsin gene, two deletions (8 bp and 1 bp) have been identified in exon 5; these deletions cause a shift in the reading frame. The predicted proteins should be radically altered with translation continuing pas
