One of the isolated cDNAs encoded a novel gene, which the authors termed CRX for 'cone-rod homeobox-containing gene.' CRX encodes a 299-amino acid protein with a predicted mass of 32 kD that is most similar to the human OTX1 (<a href="/entry/600036">600036</a>) and OTX2 (<a href="/entry/600037">600037</a>) homeodomain proteins. The CRX homeodomain is located near the amino terminus at residues 39 to 99 and belongs to the prd class. Additional domains of the CRX protein include the WSP motif and the OTX tail. The CRX gene was expressed as an abundant 4.5-kb transcript in retina but not in any other of 10 tissues or cells examined. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=9390563" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p><p><a href="#6" class="mim-tip-reference" title="Furukawa, T., Morrow, E.

Crx bound and transactivated the sequence TAATCC/A, which is found upstream of several photoreceptor-specific genes, including the opsin genes from many species. Overexpression of Crx using a retroviral vector increased the frequency of clones containing exclusively rod photoreceptors and reduced the frequency of clones containing amacrine interneurons and Muller glial cells. In addition, presumptive photoreceptor cells expressing a dominant negative form of Crx failed to form proper photoreceptor outer segments and terminals. The authors concluded that Crx is a photoreceptor-specific transcription factor and plays a crucial role in the differentiation of photoreceptor cells. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=9390562" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p>

Three homeodomain missense mutations (R41W, <a href="#0005">602225.0005</a>; R41Q, <a href="#0006">602225.0006</a>; and R90W, <a href="#0007">602225.0007</a>) displayed decreased transactivating activity, and E80A (<a href="#0001">602225.0001</a>) demonstrated markedly increased activity. In vitro protein-DNA binding assays with mutant CRX homeodomain peptides demonstrated that the alteration was due to reduced DNA binding to CRX targets. The authors hypothesized that CRX mutations involved in human photoreceptor degeneration act by impairing CRX-mediated transcriptional regulation of the photoreceptor genes. However, since a clear relationship between the magnitude of biochemical abnormality and degree of disease severity was not observed, the authors suggested that other genetic and environmental modifiers may also contribute to the disease phenotype. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=11971869" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p>

(1998)</a> identified putative disease-causing de novo deletion mutations in CRX in 2 patients with Leber congenital amaurosis-7 (<a href="/entry/613829">613829</a>): a 2-bp deletion at the glu168 codon (E168del2bp) and a 1-bp deletion at the gly217 codon (G217del1bp; <a href="#0004">602225.0004</a>). Both deletions caused frameshifts, and the predicted proteins lacked the conserved carboxy-terminal tail. The E168del2bp allele had lost an AG dinucleotide from the GAG codon for the eleventh residue within the conserved 13-amino acid WSP motif. If the mRNA containing this premature stop codon were stable, 45% of the protein would be lost and replaced with a new C terminus of 4 amino acids (VPFA). The G217del1bp allele was due to deletion of a G nucleotide, also within a short conserved sequence, and the predicted protein would lack 25% of the C terminus, with 1 new amino acid (alanine) encoded after the frameshift. Curiously, the E168del2bp mutation occurred within the same codon as a mutation found in an autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy family (<a href="#0003">602225.0003</a>). Both E168 and G217 are followed by polypyrimidine runs, a feature commonly associated with deletions. Neither mutation was present in any of the parents or in 360 control CRX alleles. <a href="#5" class="mim-tip-reference" title="Freund, C. L., Wang, Q.-L., Chen, S., Muskat, B. L., Wiles, C.

<p>To identify retinal homeobox-containing genes, Freund et al. (1997) screened a human retina cDNA library at low stringency with a fragment from the human CHX10 (142993) cDNA. One of the isolated cDNAs encoded a novel gene, which the authors termed CRX for 'cone-rod homeobox-containing gene.' CRX encodes a 299-amino acid protein with a predicted mass of 32 kD that is most similar to the human OTX1 (600036) and OTX2 (600037) homeodomain proteins. The CRX homeodomain is located near the amino terminus at residues 39 to 99 and belongs to the prd class. Additional domains of the CRX protein include the WSP motif and the OTX tail. The CRX gene was expressed as an abundant 4.5-kb transcript in retina but not in any other of 10 tissues or cells examined. </p><p>Furukawa et al. (1997) isolated the mouse Crx gene from mouse retina. The human CRX cDNA is 97% identical to the mouse gene. Crx expression was restricted to developing and mature photoreceptor cells. Crx bound and transactivated the sequence TAATCC/A, which is found upstream of several photoreceptor-specific genes, including the opsin genes from many species. Overexpression of Crx using a retroviral vector increased the frequency of clones containing exclusively rod photoreceptors and reduced the frequency of clones containing amacrine interneurons and Muller glial cells. In addition, presumptive photoreceptor cells expressing a dominant negative form of Crx failed to form proper photoreceptor outer segments and terminals. The authors concluded that Crx is a photoreceptor-specific transcription factor and plays a crucial role in the differentiation of photoreceptor cells. </p>

<strong>Gene Function</strong>

</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Akagi et al. (2004) reported that CRX and OTX2 effectively induced the generation of photoreceptor-specific phenotypes from ciliary- and iris-derived cells of adult rat. More than 90% of the CRX- and OTX2-transfected ciliary- and iris-derived cells exhibited rod opsin immunoreactivity, whereas few of the similarly transfected mesencephalon-derived neural stem cells from embryonic rat expressed rod opsin. At least 2 additional key components of the phototransduction cascade, recoverin (179618) and G-delta-T1, were expressed by CRX- and OTX2-transfected iris-derived cells. Akagi et al. (2004) concluded that CRX and OTX2 induced phenotype generation in cells derived from iris or ciliary tissue, which may suggest an approach to photoreceptor cell preparation for retinal transplantation. </p><p>Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7; 164500) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the ataxin-7 (ATXN7; 607640) protein. A unique feature of SCA7 is degeneration of photoreceptor cells in the retina, resulting in cone-rod dystrophy. In an SCA7 transgenic mouse model, La Spada et al. (2001) found that the cone-rod dystrophy involved altered photoreceptor gene expression due to interference with CRX. By coimmunoprecipitation analysis of CRX and ATXN7 truncation and point mutants, Chen et al. (2004) determined that the ATXN7-interacting domain of CRX localized to its glutamine-rich region and that the CRX-interacting domain of ATXN7 localized to its glutamine tract. Nuclear localization of ataxin-7 was required to repress Crx transactivation, and the likely nuclear localization signals were mapped to the C-terminal region of ataxin-7. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation, the authors showed that both Crx and ataxin-7 occupied the promoter and enhancer regions of Crx-regulated retinal genes in vivo. Chen et al. (2004) suggested that one mechanism of SCA7 disease pathogenesis may be transcription dysregulation, and that CRX transcription interference may be a predominant factor in SCA7 cone-rod dystrophy retinal degeneration. </p>

<p>Freund et al. (1997) found a missense and a frameshift mutation in the CRX gene in 2 pedigrees with CORD2 (120970). The authors showed that the missense (602225.0001) mutation was not a polymorphic variant and concluded that mutation in the CRX gene is responsible for the CORD2 phenotype. </p><p>Swain et al. (1997) found an arg41-to-trp substitution in the third residue of the CRX homeodomain in the proband from a family with autosomal dominant CORD. The sequence change cosegregated with the disease phenotype and was not detected in 247 normal controls. The data suggested that mutations in the CRX gene are associated with photoreceptor degeneration and that the Crx protein is necessary for the maintenance of normal cone and rod function. </p><p>Because CRX is essential for photoreceptor maintenance and because expression of a dominant-negative CRX allele in developing retina prevented outer segment biogenesis (Furukawa et al., 1997), Freund et al. (1998) tested the hypothesis that CRX mutations are responsible for some cases of the Leber congenital amaurosis phenotype by examining the CRX gene of 74 Leber congenital amaurosis patients. They identified 2 patients with a de novo deletion mutation (602225.0003-602225.0004, respectively) as the cause of Leber congenital amaurosis-7 (LCA7; 613829). Their findings indicated that the product of the CRX gene is essential not only for normal maintenance of the photoreceptor, as demonstrated by mutations causing autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy (120970), but also possibly essential for early photoreceptor development. </p><p>CRX is a transcription factor for several retinal genes, including the opsins and the gene for interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein. Because loss of CRX function could alter the expression of a number of other retinal proteins, Sohocki et al. (1998) screened for mutations in the CRX gene in probands with a range of degenerative retinal diseases. Of the 294 unrelated individuals screened, they identified 4 CRX mutations in families with clinical diagnoses of autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy, late-onset dominant retinitis pigmentosa, or dominant Leber congenital amaurosis (early-onset retinitis pigmentosa), and they identified 4 additional benign sequence variants. </p><p>Rivolta et al. (2001) summarized 18 mutations in the CRX gene associated with retinal abnormalities. Except for 1 obviously null allele not definitely associated with a phenotype (a frameshift in codon 9), all CRX mutations appeared to be completely penetrant and caused disease in heterozygotes. These dominant alleles fell into 2 categories. In one group were missense mutations and short, in-frame deletions; in the second group were frameshift mutations, all of which were in the last exon. All of these dominant mutations were likely to produce stable mRNA that is translated. Rivolta et al. (2001) did not detect a correlation between type of disease and type of mutation. Four of the mutations were de novo and these were found in isolated cases of Leber congenital amaurosis. Rivolta et al. (2001) noted that dominant CRX mutations have not been associated with mental retardation or developmental delay that has sometimes been found in Leber congenital amaurosis caused by mutation in other genes. </p><p>Chen et al. (2002) used transient transfection and mobility shift assays to investigate the consequences of 11 known mutations in CRX in vitro. They demonstrated that the C-terminal region, between amino acids 200 and 284, is essential for CRX-mediated transcriptional activation. Three homeodomain missense mutations (R41W, 602225.0005; R41Q, 602225.0006; and R90W, 602225.0007) displayed decreased transactivating activity, and E80A (602225.0001) demonstrated markedly increased activity. In vitro protein-DNA binding assays with mutant CRX homeodomain peptides demonstrated that the alteration was due to reduced DNA binding to CRX targets. The authors hypothesized that CRX mutations involved in human photoreceptor degeneration act by impairing CRX-mediated transcriptional regulation of the photoreceptor genes. However, since a clear relationship between the magnitude of biochemical abnormality and degree of disease severity was not observed, the authors suggested that other genetic and environmental modifiers may also contribute to the disease phenotype. </p>

<p>CRX is expressed not only in the photoreceptors of the retina, but also in the pinealocytes of the pineal gland. Furukawa et al. (1999) generated mice carrying a targeted disruption of Crx. Homozygous deficient mice did not elaborate photoreceptor outer segments and lacked rod and cone activity as assayed by electroretinogram. Expression of several photoreceptor- and pineal-specific genes was reduced in Crx mutants. Circadian entrainment was also affected in Crx -/- mice. To examine photoentrainment activity in homozygous deficient mice, Furukawa et al. (1999) recorded the activity of wildtype and Crx -/- mice running on an exercise wheel. All mice showed robust 24-hour rhythms in activity during entrainment and in constant darkness. All mice showed the most activity during the dark interval of a 24-hour period. The percentage of total activity that occurred at night, however, was significantly less in homozygous deficient mice than in wildtype mice. All mice re-entrained to the light-dark cycle following an advance of 4 hours in the cycle; however, the number of days required to complete the shift was greater in Crx -/- mice. </p><p>Zebrafish proved a useful model for studying circadian gene regulation and pineal organ function. The Crx gene was thought to regulate pineal circadian activity. In the mouse, targeted inactivation of Crx caused a reduction in pineal gene expression and attenuated entrainment to light/dark cycles (Furukawa et al., 1999). Gamse et al. (2002) showed that Crx and Otx5 (orthodenticle homeobox-5) orthologs are expressed in both the pineal organ and the asymmetrically positioned parapineal of larval zebrafish. Circadian gene expression was unaffected by a reduction in Crx expression but was inhibited specifically by depletion of Otx5. These results indicate that Otx5 rather than Crx regulates genes that show circadian expression in the zebrafish pineal complex. </p><p>Using expression studies in transgenic mice under conditional Otx2 (600037) gene ablation, Nishida et al. (2003) presented evidence that Otx2 is a direct upstream regulator of Crx and acts via binding to specific consensus sequences in the Crx promoter. </p><p>Menotti-Raymond et al. (2010) identified a putative mutation in the CRX gene (546delC) as the cause of autosomal dominant rod-cone dysplasia (Rdy) in a pedigree of cats segregating for the disorder. Disease expression in Rdy cats is comparable to that in young patients with Leber congenital amaurosis or retinitis pigmentosa. </p>

<p>Using SSCP analysis and direct sequencing of PCR-amplified exons of the CRX gene, Freund et al. (1998) identified putative disease-causing de novo deletion mutations in CRX in 2 patients with Leber congenital amaurosis-7 (613829): a 2-bp deletion at the glu168 codon (E168del2bp) and a 1-bp deletion at the gly217 codon (G217del1bp; 602225.0004). Both deletions caused frameshifts, and the predicted proteins lacked the conserved carboxy-terminal tail. The E168del2bp allele had lost an AG dinucleotide from the GAG codon for the eleventh residue within the conserved 13-amino acid WSP motif. If the mRNA containing this premature stop codon were stable, 45% of the protein would be lost and replaced with a new C terminus of 4 amino acids (VPFA). The G217del1bp allele was due to deletion of a G nucleotide, also within a short conserved sequence, and the predicted protein would lack 25% of the C terminus, with 1 new amino acid (alanine) encoded after the frameshift. Curiously, the E168del2bp mutation occurred within the same codon as a mutation found in an autosomal dominant cone-rod dystrophy family (602225.0003). Both E168 and G217 are followed by polypyrimidine runs, a feature commonly associated with deletions. Neither mutation was present in any of the parents or in 360 control CRX alleles. Freund et al. (1998) stated that although they were unable to identify a mutation in the other CRX allele of either patient, both might nevertheless carry a second CRX mutation (such as a promoter or mid-intron mutation) that remains to be discovered. If that is the case, the inheritance would be recessive. </p>

The authors stated that later analysis of additional members of this family suggested an alternative diagnosis of late-onset, atypical, cone-rod dystrophy. None of the other 163 probands with a diagnosis of autosomal dominant RP studied by Sohocki et al. (1998) were found to have a mutation in the CRX gene. </p>

<p>In a patient with Leber congenital amaurosis-7 (613829), Swaroop et al. (1999) identified a homozygous substitution of arginine (arg) at codon 90 by tryptophan (trp) in the CRX homeodomain due to a C-to-T transition in exon 3 of the CRX gene. Swaroop et al. (1999) found that the mutant CRX (R90W) homeodomain demonstrated decreased binding to the previously identified cis sequence elements in the rhodopsin promoter. In transient transfection experiments, the mutant protein showed significantly reduced ability to transactivate the rhodopsin promoter, as well as lower synergistic activation with the transcription factor NRL (162080). </p>

<p>Nakamura et al. (2002) reported a novel de novo mutation in the CRX gene in a Japanese patient with Leber congenital amaurosis-7 (613829). The CRX gene was analyzed by direct genomic sequencing in the patient with LCA and in his healthy parents. They identified a heterozygous deletion of G at nucleotide 520 in CRX, predicting a frameshift in codon 174 and a premature termination of translation. The mutation was not present in the proband's unaffected parents. Except for CRX, all known genes that cause LCA cause the disorder in an autosomal recessive fashion. This mutation was similar to the other 5 known de novo mutations in CRX because it was a heterozygous deletion of 1 or 2 base pairs in exon 3 causing a frameshift, producing a protein lacking the conserved OTX tail motif near the C terminus. </p>
