{"symbol":"CDHR1","synonyms":["CORD15","PRCAD","RP65","PCDH21"],"name":"cadherin-related family member 1","description":"This gene belongs to the cadherin superfamily of calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecules. The encoded protein is a photoreceptor-specific cadherin that plays a role in outer segment disc morphogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with inherited retinal dystrophies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
