Summary: This gene encodes a retinal protein that is associated with promyelocytic leukemia-gene product (PML) bodies in the nucleus. Mutations in this gene cause Leber congenital amaurosis type 12, a disease that results in retinal degeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Two clusters of surface-exposed amino acid residues enable high-affinity binding of retinal degeneration-3 (RD3) protein to retinal guanylyl cyclase.
Title: Two clusters of surface-exposed amino acid residues enable high-affinity binding of retinal degeneration-3 (RD3) protein to retinal guanylyl cyclase.
Study stratified expression of RD3 in different cell types and subcellular location of retina. We demonstrated extensive positive RD3 immunoreactivity in various normal tissues and particularly strong dot-like perinuclear staining in the lining epithelial cells, suggesting that RD3 may play an important role in the normal functioning of epithelial cells. RD3 expression is limited in the CNS.

The NMR structure of RD3 presented here provides a structural basis for elucidating RD3-RetGC interactions relevant for normal vision or blindness.
Title: Retinal degeneration 3 (RD3) protein, a retinal guanylyl cyclase regulator, forms a monomeric and elongated four-helix bundle.
Re-expressing RD3 in metastatic site-derived aggressive cells reverted their metastatic potential both in vitro and in vivo. Conversely muting RD3 in neuroblastoma cells not only heightened invasion/migration but also dictated aggressive disease with metastasis.
Title: RD3 loss dictates high-risk aggressive neuroblastoma and poor clinical outcomes.
This study reports the results of an international study aimed at delineating the clinical and molecular spectrum of RD3 mutations in retinal dystrophies.
Title: Union makes strength: a worldwide collaborative genetic and clinical study to provide a comprehensive survey of RD3 mutations and delineate the associated phenotype.
Mutations in RD3 are a very rare cause of Leber's congenital amaurosis (LCA) associated with an extremely severe form of retinal dystrophy.
Title: Mutations in RD3 are associated with an extremely rare and severe form of early onset retinal dystrophy.
RD3 suppresses the basal catalytic activity of guanylyl cyclase activating proteins (GCAP) in a noncompetitive manner.
Title: Retinal degeneration 3 (RD3) protein inhibits catalytic activity of retinal membrane guanylyl cyclase (RetGC) and its stimulation by activating proteins.
the retinopathy-associated RD3 protein is part of subnuclear protein complexes involved in diverse processes, such as transcription and splicing.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
