Spata7 is required for maintenance of the retinal connecting cilium

Abstract SPATA7, an early onset LCA3 retinal disease gene, encodes a putative scaffold protein that is essential for the proper assembly of the connecting cilium (CC) complex in photoreceptors. Previous studies have shown that SPATA7 interacts with other photoreceptor-specific ciliary proteins, such...
