About Peripherin 2
Peripherin-2 is a protein, that in humans is encoded by the PRPH2 gene. Peripherin-2 is found in the rod and cone cells of the retina of the eye. Defects in this protein result in one form of retinitis pigmentosa, an incurable blindness. Mutations in the PRPH2 gene are associated with Vitelliform macular dystrophy.
