Table 4. Clinical details of RP1 mutation carriers
Clinical details of all mutation carriers, showing inter- and intra-familial variations in phenotype. RP represents retinitis pigmentosa. Visual acuities are provided in metric units.

------ --- ------ ---------------------------- --------------------------------------------------
Mutation Arg677X (Figure 1)
III:1 58 34 Age 48: 6/24 Diffuse RP with macular edema, rapid progression
Age 53: Hand motions with the onset of macular degeneration, cataracts,
waxy pallor of discs, attenuated vessels,
extensive distribution of bone spicule in retinal
periphery, vitreal floaters.
IV:1 31 Early Age 22: 6/6 Diffuse RP
20s Age 27: 6/7.5
Mutation Ser911X (Figure 2)
III:2 69 About Age 68: 6/60 OU, which Early onset of nyctalopia, diffuse RP, cystoid
40 improved with Diamox to 6/21 macular edema, mild nuclear sclerosis, pale and
OS after 6 months waxy discs, bone spicule scattered peripherally in
the retina, floaters and asteroid hyalosis of the
vitreous.
IV:4 43 19 Nyctalopia began at age 19, followed by loss of
visual fields in early 20s.
IV:5 40 No apparent manifestation
IV:7 34 No apparent manifestation
Mutation 2590-2599del ATAACTTTAA (Figure 3)
III:4 30s Nyctalopia began at age 48. Deceased
IV:2 71 17 Nyctalopia began at age 17, by the age of 40
peripheral vision was very poor, hyperopia at age
60.
V:1 51 Early Age 50: 6/15 OD, 6/9 OS Diffuse RP with slow progression, cataracts, waxy
teens pallor of the discs, attenuated vessels,
granularity of the macula, bleakish fovea, bone
spicule and white dots on retina, no cellularity
or vitreous floaters.
VI:2 28 No apparent manifestation. Retinoblastoma in one
eye at 6 months of age.
VI:4 26 24 Nyctalopia began in 20s, diffuse RP with slow
progression, waxy pallor of discs, attenuated
vessels, normal macula and fovea, occasional and
diffuse pigment in the periphery of the retina,
bone spicule, normal vitreous.
