  • Title: Prenatal exclusion of choroideremia.
    Author: van den Hurk JA, van Zandvoort PM, Brunsmann F, Pawlowitzki IH, Holzgreve W, Szabo P, Cremers FP, van Oost BA.
    Journal: Am J Med Genet; 1992 Dec 01; 44(6):822-3. PubMed ID: 1362326.
    Abstract:
    We performed prenatal testing to predict the inheritance of choroideremia (CHM) using a linked polymorphic DNA marker, DXS95. DNA analysis of chorionic villi at the 12th week of pregnancy indicated that the allele at risk had not been passed from the heterozygous mother to the fetus. This prenatal exclusion of choroideremia was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis.
