Table 1. Classification of adRP and adCSNB mutations.

Classification of rhodopsin mutations described in HGMD (http://www.hgmd.cf.ac.uk/) based on their experimentally studied biochemical and cellular characteristics. Italicised substitutions are observed in the gnomAD dataset at a frequency of ~ 1:80,000 or more and might be non-pathogenic substitutions. § might behave as class 4 after 11-cis-retinal rescue. † might behave as class 2 on overexpression, but class 4 in vivo.
