Researchers at the University of California, San diego School of medicine and Shiley Eye Institute at UC San diego Health System identified the gene mutation that underlies achromatopsia, an inherited eye disorder.
Five other genetic mutations have previously been identified by research groups as pivotal in achromatopsia.""But we still had families that didn't have any of those gene mutations.
We knew this meant there must be other genes and proteins involved, "Lin said. The new study found that a mutation in the ATF6 gene damaged proteins necessary for proper function of the eye's cone photoreceptors.
In the study, the scientists looked at 18 achromatopsia patients from 10 different families who had been identified as lacking the five previously known gene mutations.
All 18 were found to have the ATF6 gene mutation. Lin said the ATF6 gene, when working properly, is a key regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR).
Lin noted that the UPR is a different molecular mechanism than those affected by the other five gene mutations."
