Abstract
The present invention relates to the identification of photoreceptors or cone photoreceptors in populations of cells. In particular the present invention relates to methods of identification of photoreceptors or cone photoreceptors and methods of isolating photoreceptors or cone photoreceptors. Photoreceptors or cone photoreceptors isolated by the methods of the present invention are useful for transplantation and the treatment of retinal dystrophies. Also claimed are human cell populations enriched for photoreceptors or cone photoreceptors and kits for identifying photoreceptors or cone photoreceptors.
