- MCOPS12 is a rare disorder characterized by developmental eye defects and neurodegenerative symptoms related to motor and cognitive functions. The disease is caused by monoallelic variants in the gene coding for the retinoic acid receptor beta (RARB). Pathogenic variants in
- _RARB_ occur mainly
- _de novo_ but can also be inherited;
- _de novo_ mutations are associated with a more severe neurological phenotype than inherited ones. The main concerns reported by clinical teams and MCOPS12 families are neurologic impairments.- RARB is a member of the nuclear receptor family and acts as ligand-regulated transcription factor. Together with other retinoic acid receptor isotypes (RARa and RARg) it mediates signaling of retinoic acid (RA) an active form of vitamin A, which is indispensable for the development of the central nervous system in all vertebrates. The knowledge on its postnatal functions, classically associated with vision, only starts being discovered and expands rapidly since the last decade. Importantly, compromised RA signaling and in particular RARb expression has also been associated with several other neurodegenerative diseases including Huntington’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease. Thus, studying mechanisms of MCOPS12 neurodegeneration should shed light onto mechanisms of other diseases too.-
