Transcriptome analysis of the retina.
The retina offers unique opportunities to define the molecular and cellular pathways mediating neuronal function and disease because of its morphological complexity, well-defined role in visual transduction and the availability of mutants. These investigations are being greatly facilitated by the ongoing identification of genes expressed in the retina using high-throughput methods.
