RLBP1 patient mutations are also linked to a wide array of autosomal recessive rod-cone retinopathies including RP, Bothnia dystrophy, retinitis punctata albescens (RPA), fundus albipunctatus (FA) and Newfoundland rod-cone dystrophy (Table 1; Morimura et al., 1999; Saari et al., 2001). The gene discussed is RLBP1; the disease is Cone rod dystrophy.
