Patient-specific mutations impair BESTROPHIN1’s essential role in mediating Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) currents in human RPE
Mutations in the human BEST1 gene lead to retinal degenerative diseases displaying progressive vision loss and even blindness. BESTROPHIN1, encoded by BEST1, is predominantly expressed in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), but its physiological role has been a mystery for the last two decades. Using...
