Identifying variants impacting splicing of 5’ and 3’ UTRs and underpinning inherited retinal disease

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

Genomic variation that impacts splicing is well established as a cause of genomic disorders, but is almost exclusively limited to protein-coding exons and introns intersecting protein-coding exons. Read more

Common genetic origins of visual and neurocognitive disorders

University of York York Biomedical Research Institute

There is emerging evidence that apparently distinct neurodegenerative diseases have common genetic origins. For example, genes such as ARMS2 and HTRA1, which are fundamental to regulating neuronal health, are implicated in both dementia and diseases of the retina (particularly age-related macular degeneration).
