HUM-MOLGEN archive: DIAG, CALL: genetic testing on late onset blindness

************************************************************** HUM-MOLGEN DIAGnostics/Clinical Research ************************************************************** This DIAG message contains 1 submessage(s): 1) Predictive testing on late onset blindness 2) Carlo Gambacorti MD, Editor, Human Molecular Genetics network Diagnostics/Clinical Research Section ************************************************************** ************************************************************** I am working on a project looking at attitudes towards antenatal diagnosis and predictive testing of late onset genetic conditions. In particular I am interested to know whether any one has in fact done predictive testing on any forms of late onset genetic blindness. I have read two articles on choroideremia (1992, 1993) and one on X- linked RP (1994). Does any one know of any other publications? Is there any one who IS doing predictive testing on this list? Please could you write to me at jg@anat.uct.ac.za Many thanks Jacquie Greenberg.
