【 摘 要 】

Retinal degenerations are a series of genetically inherited diseases resulting in significant visual impairment and blindness. Among domestic cat breeds, there are degenerations of different courses associated with mutations in CEP290 , CRX , AIPL1 and KIF3B genes. The aim of this study was to design diagnostic tests to identify the mutated alleles. The primers for PCR and restriction enzymes for PCR-RFLP were designed to detect mutations in genes. Mutation in the nucleotide sequence encoding AIPL1 protein causes a change in the protein structure, where a monomer is formed instead of a homodimer. Interactions of CEP290, CRX, AIPL1 and KIF3B proteins with other proteins that play a role in the proper functioning of the retina were observed. The occurring interactions between some of these proteins suggest a possible link between diseases caused by mutations of genes encoding these proteins. In other animal species, co-expression of the analyzed genes with other genes affecting retinal functions was noted.
