ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • in Schapendoes dogs, a mutation in the Ccdc66 gene has been shown to cause autosomal recessively inherited, generalized progressive retinal atrophy (gPRA)
  • lack of Ccdc66 in the novel Ccdc66 -/- mouse leads to an early photoreceptor degeneration, with a slow, progressive retinal phenotype and physiological impairment of the retina
