The gene for the gamma-subunit of retinal cGMP-phosphodiesterase is on mouse chromosome 11.

Abstract:

:Mice carrying the rd mutation are affected with an autosomal recessive disease characterized by the total degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells, which begins at postnatal day 8 and reaches completion by 3 wk of life. Biochemical studies have led to the proposal that a lesion in cGMP metabolism may be the cause of the rd photoreceptor degeneration, since cGMP reaches abnormally high levels in the rd retina a few days before the morphological pathology starts. The abnormal cGMP level is due to deficient cGMP-phosphodiesterase (cGMP-PDE) activity. A cDNA for the gamma-subunit of mouse cGMP-PDE has recently been cloned and characterized. We have mapped this cDNA to mouse chromosome 11 using a panel comprised of 19 hamster-mouse somatic cell hybrids by Southern blot hybridization. Our results suggest that the structural gene for the gamma-subunit of cGMP-PDE from mouse retina, which we have designated 'Pdeg', is not the primary defect in rd disease, as the locus of this genetic defect is on mouse chromosome 5.
