Abstract

Along with the molecular and functional characterization of CNGA3, knowledge about diseases associated with CNGA3 mutations has made great progress. So far, CNGA3 mutations are not only one of the most common causes of achromatopsia and cone dystrophy or cone-rod dystrophy but also one of the most commonly mutated genes among various forms of retinopathy. Understanding the clinical characteristics of CNGA3-associated retinal diseases may help clinical practice of infants or children with related diseases. Recognizing the importance of CNGA3 in inherited retinal diseases may enhance related research in searching for functional restoration or repair of CNGA3 defects.
