Chromenone derivatives as novel pharmacological chaperones for retinitis pigmentosa-linked rod opsin mutants

J. T. Ortega, A. G. McKee, F. J. Roushar…·B. Jastrzebska

This study identifies a chromenone derivative that stabilizes rod opsin mutants, rescues membrane trafficking in vitro, and protects photoreceptors in vivo in RP models.

Molecular Basis for Variations in the Sensitivity of Pathogenic Rhodopsin Variants to 9-cis-Retinal

F. J. Roushar, A. G. McKee, C. P. Kuntz…·J. P. Schlebach

This study uses deep mutational scanning to analyze how 123 pathogenic rhodopsin variants respond to 9-cis-retinal, identifying variants with diminished membrane expression and varying sensitivity to retinal.

Systematic Profiling of Temperature- and Retinal-Sensitive Rhodopsin Variants by Deep Mutational Scanning

A. G. McKee, C. P. Kuntz, J. T. Ortega…·J. P. Schlebach

This study uses deep mutational scanning to analyze how temperature and retinal affect plasma membrane expression of rhodopsin variants, revealing correlations between mutation sites and sensitivity to these factors.
