Thrilled to share that our paper on a novel IRD gene has been published in The American Journal of Human Genetics (AJHG)! 🎉 This wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible group of colleagues and collaborators. Special thanks to @computingcaitie.bsky.social, Ditta Zobor, and ERDC members!

No momentum lost as we dazzled with the ciliary necklace, CEP290 and transition zone integrity in #photoreceptors, inner scaffold maintenance & membrane attachment key for gating with the amazing @abimoye.bsky.social (Wensel group and current @carlorivolta.bsky.social ). #IRDs #UKCilia2025 /4

I am normally focused on photoreceptor cilia, but this week I worked with an amazing lung epithelial tissue model and I can see the #motilecilia appeal 🤩 so fascinating! Happy #fluorescencefriday everyone!

Bi-allelic variants in three genes encoding distinct subunits of the vesicular AP-5 complex cause hereditary macular dystrophy
We discovered genetic changes in three genes (AP5Z1, AP5M1, and AP5B1) that cause macular degeneration, affecting sharp central vision. The proteins encoded by these genes form a complex that helps th...
