Molecular classification
GTPase regulator
01

Overview

RPGR (Retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator) is a protein encoded by the *RPGR* gene, which is essential for normal vision. The protein plays a critical role in the function of cilia and is particularly important for photoreceptor cells, regulating ciliary function necessary for sensory perception. Mutations in RPGR are linked to various retinal diseases, most notably X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.
