Elp31 mutants exhibit striking electroretinogram phenotypes. The photoreceptor layer depolarises less in response to a one second light pulse and the on and off transients are also dramatically reduced when compared to controls, suggesting abnormal neuronal communication. While the R7 and R8 photoreceptors project into the medula, the projection pattern is disrupted and the array of photoreceptor terminals are disordered.
