Condition

Cone-rod Dystrophy

Assembled from catalogue records November 6, 2026

Cone-rod Dystrophy, as genome-wide studies have reported it: 29 positions from 1 study. Built from the GWAS Catalog's records and rebuilt when a new position is reported; the figures are the studies'.

What this condition connects to

Prevalence
Not taken from these records, which report study sizes rather than how common the condition is.
Inheritance
Many positions, each with a small effect: 29 positions across 1 study, the pattern of a polygenic condition. The records do not give a heritability, and this page does not supply one.

This is the record of what genome-wide association studies have found for Cone-rod Dystrophy (the GWAS Catalog's "Cone-rod dystrophy"): 29 positions reported by 1 study. The page is put together by code from the catalogue's records and the studies' own listings, and it is rebuilt whenever the records change, so it always reflects them as they stand.

The studies, one by one

A study. It contributes 29 positions: rs1131691378 (PRPH2), rs1282472315 (ABCA4), rs1296826479 (PROM1), rs142980820 (CDHR1), rs1437021651 (CRX), rs1439202144 (TTLL5), rs1464167194 (CNGA3), rs1553901823 (PROM1), and 21 more.

Positions and mapped genes

The 29 positions lie in or near 20 genes: PRPH2, ABCA4, PROM1, CDHR1, CRX, TTLL5, CNGA3, GUCA1A, ADAM9, RBP3, GUCY2D, RPGR, CACNA1F, POC1B, CLN3, IMPG2, NMNAT1, CRB1, RPE65, CEP290. A gene named here is the catalogue's mapped location for a position, not a mechanism; the studies are cited above so that a reader can go to them.

What this page is, and is not

Read this page as a list of findings about Cone-rod Dystrophy, not as an account of it. Each finding is a position that a genome-wide study linked to the condition across a population; the page adds no description, no prevalence and no advice, because the records hold none. The variant pages linked above give each study's record for its position, and ClinVar's where one exists.

Clinical detail

Diagnosis happens in a clinic

A genotype does not diagnose Cone-rod Dystrophy; a clinician does. No guideline uses the 29 variants on this page to predict it, screen for it or confirm it.

This page was assembled by code from association records. It holds no clinical guidance, because its sources hold none: a genome-wide study reports which positions differ between people with a condition and people without, at the population level, and that is all this page repeats. A question about a symptom, a test or a treatment belongs with a clinician.

Questions about Cone-rod Dystrophy

What is Cone-rod Dystrophy?

Cone-rod Dystrophy is the condition the GWAS Catalog files under "Cone-rod dystrophy". This page does not define it in its own words; it lists what genome-wide studies have reported: 29 positions from 1 study, with each study's sample and citation.

Is Cone-rod Dystrophy genetic?

Genome-wide studies have reported 29 associated positions. Each common variant has a small effect, and an association in a population is not a cause in any one person.

Which genes are linked to Cone-rod Dystrophy on this page?

The catalogue maps the positions to 20 genes: PRPH2, ABCA4, PROM1, CDHR1, CRX, TTLL5, CNGA3, GUCA1A, ADAM9, RBP3, GUCY2D, RPGR, CACNA1F, POC1B, CLN3, IMPG2, NMNAT1, CRB1, RPE65, CEP290. These are where the positions sit, not proof of how they act.

Can these variants predict whether I will get Cone-rod Dystrophy?

No. They are population-level findings of small effect. Cone-rod Dystrophy is diagnosed by a clinician, and no guideline uses a genotype to predict it.
