CEP97 plays a role in centrosome function and ciliary formation [63] and although CEP97 has not directly been implicated with human retinal degenerations, mutations in other centrosomal protein coding genes have been associated with both syndromic and non-syndromic retinal degenerations (CEP19, CEP78, CEP164, CEP250 and CEP290) [64–75]. The gene discussed is CEP97; the disease is retinal degeneration.
