Nonretinoid chaperones improve rhodopsin homeostasis in a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa

Rhodopsin-associated (RHO-associated) retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a progressive retinal disease that currently has no cure. RHO protein misfolding leads to disturbed proteostasis and the death of rod photoreceptors, resulting in decreased vision. We previously identified nonretinoid chaperones of R...
