The gene for retinitis pigmentosa 3 (RP3), the most frequent form of X-
linked RP (XLRP), has been mapped previously to a chromosome interval of
less than 1000 kbp between the DXS1110 marker and the OTC locus at
Xp21.1-p11.4. Employing a novel technique, YAC Representation Hybridization
(YRH)', we have recently identified a small XLRP associated microdeletion
in this interval, as well as several putative exons including the 3' end of
a gene that was truncated by the deletion. cDNA library screening and
sequencing of a cosmid centromeric to the deletion has now enabled us to
identify numerous additional exons and to detect several point mutations in
patients with XLRP. The predicted gene product shows homology to RCC1, the
guanine-nucleotide- exchange factor (GEF) of the Ras-like GTPase Ran. Our
findings suggest that we have cloned the long-sought RP3 gene, and that it
may encode the GEF of a retina-specific GTP-binding protein.
