Model of the localization of retinal ciliopathy proteins for each patient included in the study. Four ciliary compartments can be defined in photoreceptors: the distal cilium, the connecting cilium or proximal cilium, the basal body and the periciliary complex. The distal cilium is occupied by MAK. Proteins in the connecting cilium include CEP290and C2orf71. BBS1 is in the basal bodies domain. USH2A and CLRN1 protein is located at the periciliary complex. FAM161A protein was found in the connecting cilium and basal body [3, 4]
