Summary
RAX2 (retina and anterior neural fold homeobox 2, HGNC:18286) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19p13.3, encoding Retina and anterior neural fold homeobox protein 2 (Q96IS3). May be involved in modulating the expression of photoreceptor specific genes.
This gene encodes a homeodomain-containing protein that plays a role in eye development. Mutation of this gene causes age-related macular degeneration type 6, an eye disorder resulting in accumulations of protein and lipid beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within the Bruch’s membrane. Defects in this gene can also cause cone-rod dystrophy type 11, a disease characterized by the initial degeneration of cone photoreceptor cells and resulting in loss of color vision and visual acuity, followed by the degeneration of rod photoreceptor cells, which progresses to night blindness and the loss of peripheral vision. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Disease relevance. Macular degeneration, age-related, 6 (ARMD6) [MIM:613757] A form of age-related macular degeneration, a multifactorial eye disease and the most common cause of irreversible vision loss in the developed world. In most patients, the disease is manifest as ophthalmoscopically visible yellowish accumulations of protein and lipid that lie beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within an elastin-containing structure known as Bruch membrane. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Cone-rod dystrophy 11 (CORD11) [MIM:610381] An inherited retinal dystrophy characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination, predominantly in the macular region, and initial loss of cone photoreceptors followed by rod degeneration. This leads to decreased visual acuity and sensitivity in the central visual field, followed by loss of peripheral vision. Severe loss of vision occurs earlier than in retinitis pigmentosa, due to cone photoreceptors degenerating at a higher rate than rod photoreceptors. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Retinitis pigmentosa 95 (RP95) [MIM:620102] A form of retinitis pigmentosa, a retinal dystrophy belonging to the group of pigmentary retinopathies. Retinitis pigmentosa is characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination and primary loss of rod photoreceptor cells followed by secondary loss of cone photoreceptors. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. RP95 is an autosomal recessive form characterized by pale optic disks, attenuation of retinal vessels, and atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium with bone-spicule pigmentation. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
