Choroideremia; Chm

Description

Choroideremia is an X-linked disease that leads to the degeneration of the choriocapillaris, the retinal pigment epithelium, and the photoreceptor of the eye (Cremers et al., 1990). The characteristic lesion of choroideremia is chorioretinal scalloped atrophy in the midperipheral fundus, with preservation of the macula (Li et al., 2014).See also choroideremia, deafness, and mental retardation (OMIM ), a contiguous gene deletion syndrome involving the CHM and POU3F4 (OMIM ) genes on Xq21. X-linked deafness-2 with stapes fixation (DFNX2 ) is also caused by mutation in the CHM gene.
