Abstract excerpt
To investigate the molecular cause of choroideremia in two unrelated patients with no detectable mutations in the CHM gene. Two unrelated patients were examined by an ophthalmologist to obtain a clinical diagnosis. Patient and control cells were cultured and used as a source of DNA, RNA, and protein for analysis. Exonic regions of CHM were Sanger sequenced and copy number analysis was performed by multiplex...
