## Abstract The association of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and microphthalmia has been reported in a number of familial and isolated cases. Here, the results of genetic analysis in a familial case of early RP associated with nanophthalmos are described. Two affected sibs were ascertained from an endo
Heterozygous truncating mutations in the RP1 gene cause approximately 7% of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP) cases. To examine the role of RP1 mutations in RP, we screened 101 unrelated Chinese RP patients (unselected for mode of inheritance) and 190 elderly normal control subjects for s
