Genes affected
CHM (HGNC:1940): (CHM Rab escort protein) This gene encodes component A of the RAB geranylgeranyl transferase holoenzyme. In the dimeric holoenzyme, this subunit binds unprenylated Rab GTPases and then presents them to the catalytic Rab GGTase subunit for the geranylgeranyl transfer reaction. Rab GTPases need to be geranylgeranyled on either one or two cysteine residues in their C-terminus to localize to the correct intracellular membrane. Mutations in this gene are a cause of choroideremia; also known as tapetochoroidal dystrophy (TCD). This X-linked disease is characterized by progressive dystrophy of the choroid, retinal pigment epithelium and retina. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Choroideremia Pathogenic:2Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteFeb 02, 2022Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as a Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Choroideremia (MIM# 303100). (I) 0110 - This gene is associated with X-linked disease. Males are predominantly affected, while females are usually unaffected some may display symptoms similar to affected males due to random X-inactivation (PMID: 29555028). (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.001 for a dominant condition (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes, hemizygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (ClinVar). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with choroideremia (ClinVar, PMID: 27739455, 33110609). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 04, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val529Hisfs*7) in the CHM gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CHM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9067750, 23811034). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of choroideremia (PMID: 25912515, 30541579, 31181178). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11152). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
