Abstract
GUCY2D encodes guanylyl cyclase 1, which is an enzyme with unknown function expressed in rod and cone photoreceptors. Mutations in GUCY2D are associated with autosomal recessive Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), autosomal recessive cone-rod dystrophy (CORD), and autosomal dominant cone dystrophy (COD).
