Global spectrum of USH2A mutation in inherited retinal dystrophies: Prompt message for development of base editing therapy

PurposeMutation in the USH2A gene is the most common cause of inherited retinal dystrophy (IRD), including non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and Usher syndrome II (USH2). Gene editing and therapy targeting USH2A, especially the hotspot region, would benefit a large proportion of IRD patients....
