We report a novel ARL2BP splice site mutation after whole-exome sequencing (WES) applied to a Moroccan family including two sisters affected with autosomal recessive rod-cone dystrophy (arRCD). Subsequent analysis of 844 index cases did not reveal further pathogenic chances in ARL2BP indicating that mutations in ARL2B are a rare cause of arRCD (about 0.1%) in a large cohort of French patients.
