Retinitis pigmentosa_Autosomal Dominant v0.29 IMPG1 Zornitza Stark Classified gene: IMPG1 as Green List (high evidence)
Retinitis pigmentosa_Autosomal Dominant v0.29 IMPG1 Zornitza Stark Gene: impg1 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Retinitis pigmentosa_Autosomal Dominant v0.28 IMPG1 Zornitza Stark gene: IMPG1 was added
gene: IMPG1 was added to Retinitis pigmentosa_Autosomal Dominant. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: IMPG1 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: IMPG1 were set to 32817297
Phenotypes for gene: IMPG1 were set to Retinitis pigmentosa, MONDO:0019200
Review for gene: IMPG1 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Variants in this gene are classically associated with macular dystrophy.

However note recent paper by Olivier et al. 2021 (PMID: 32817297) who identified seven variants in IMPG1 (including five novel) in 11 families with VMD or retinitis pigmentosa (RP).

4 families were diagnosed with autosomal dominant RP, 2 families had autosomal recessive RP, while 5 families developed VMD in association with heterozygous IMPG1 variants. Notably, inter- and intrafamilial phenotypic variation was evident with some individuals presenting RP while others had VMD, despite harbouring the same IMPG1 variant.

Knockdown of Impg1 in medaka fish resulted in a phenotype consistent with that observed in human patients, including a decreased length of rod and cone photoreceptor outer segments.
