Novel pathogenic variants were identified in ARL6 (MIM *180069; p.Ile125Asnfs*7) and GNAT1 (MIM *139330; p.Ala95Hisfs*9; Table 2), confirming the recently suggested involvement of these genes in non‐syndromic RP (Aldahmesh et al., 2009; Méjécase et al., 2016). This evidence concerns the gene GNAT1 and retinitis pigmentosa 1.
