<p>This section utilizes a number of different approaches to study inherited visual diseases affecting all parts of the eye.</p><p>In one approach to understanding inherited visual diseases we use positional cloning to identify genes important in human inherited diseases. Diseases currently undergoing linkage analysis, gene isolation, or characterization of mutations include retinitis pigmentosa, inherited cataracts, Bietti crystalline dystrophy, and several corneal dystrophies.</p><p>In a second approach, we attempt to establish associations between sequence changes in and around candidate genes and specific visual phenotypes. We have applied this type of study primarily to prevalent diseases with a complex inheritance pattern, including age related cataracts, myopia, and glaucoma.</p><p>Once a candidate gene has been identified and confirmed, the biochemical and pathophysiological implications of identified mutations are explored both <em>in vitro</em> through recombinant expression and functional characterization of wild type and mutant proteins and <em>in vivo</em> through transgenic expression or knock out of pathological proteins both in cultured cells and model organisms such as the mouse and zebrafish. One group of proteins we have investigated in detail are the lens crystallins, which make up more than 90 percent of the soluble protein of lens and are heavily modified in most cataracts. The effects that specific modifications produce on crystallin structure and other functions such as stability, resistance to damage by ultraviolet light, and formation of macromolecular aggregates are being studied. Examples of other molecules under study include genes implicated in retinal disease, such as <em>CYP4V2</em>, <em>ZNF513</em>, and <em>KCNJ13</em>.</p>
