ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • deletion of Crb2 in the murine retina results in early retinal disorganization leading to severe and progressive retinal degeneration with a concomitant visual loss that mimics retinitis pigmentosa due to mutations in the CRB1 gene
  • severe abnormalities appearing in Crb2-deficient mice embryos at late-gastrulation
