CASK hypomorph mice display cone photoreceptor dysfunction

Sheida Hashemi, Sara Y. Sabbagh, Khushi Talajia, James A. Fortenberry, Saba Tufail, Candice Turner, Konark Mukherjee

This study shows that Cask knock-in mice exhibit cone photoreceptor dysfunction, reduced visual acuity, and lowered cone-specific opsin levels, linking CASK LOF to retinopathy.

Complete loss of CASK causes severe ataxia through cerebellar degeneration in human and mouse

Paras A Patel, Julia V Hegert, Ingrid Cristian, Alicia Kerr, Leslie E. W. LaConte, Michael A. Fox, Sarika Srivastava, Konark Mukherjee

This study shows that complete loss of CASK causes cerebellar degeneration in humans and mice, leading to severe ataxia and encephalopathy, while heterozygous loss results in less severe, non-progressive pathology due to X-chromosome inactivation.
