| Popis: | Choroideremia is a progressive tapetochoroidal dystrophy with X-linked transmission leading frequently to blindness in affected males. The choroideremia-locus (TCD) has recently been assigned to the long arm of the X chromosome by linkage to polymorphic DNA markers. In order to further define the location of the gene defect, two families segregating for choroideremia were examined for DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms. A search was undertaken for linkage with cloned DNA probes from the proximal short and long arm as well as from the mid-portion of the long arm of the X chromosome. Our data suggest that the most plausible gene order on the Xq is: Xcen-DXYS1-DXS3-TCD-DXS11-Xqter. |
