Introduction Biallelic mutation carriers have a mutation (not necessarily the same mutation) in both copies of a particular gene (a paternal and a maternal mutation). The RPE65 gene provides instructions for making an enzyme that is essential for normal vision and mutations in this gene result in reduced or absent levels of RPE65 activity, blocking the visual cycle and resulting in impaired vision. Almost all patients eventually progress to complete blindness. |
