ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Rorb(-/-) mice lacking retinoid-related orphan nuclear receptor beta lose rods but overproduce primitive S cones that lack outer segments
  • Rorbeta-deficient mice fail to induce S opsin appropriately during postnatal cone development
  • Rorb-deficient mice lose expression of pancreas-specific transcription factor 1a (Ptf1a) but retain forkhead box n4 factor (Foxn4), two early-acting factors necessary for amacrine and horizontal cell generation 1
