Background:
This gene encodes component A of the RAB geranylgeranyltransferase holoenzyme. In the dimeric holoenzyme, this subunitbinds unprenylated Rab GTPases and then presents them to thecatalytic Rab GGTase subunit for the geranylgeranyl transferreaction. Rab GTPases need to be geranylgeranyled on either one ortwo cysteine residues in their C-terminus to localize to thecorrect intracellular membrane. Mutations in this gene are a causeof choroideremia; also known as tapetochoroidal dystrophy (TCD).This X-linked disease is characterized by progressive dystrophy ofthe choroid, retinal pigment epithelium and retina. Alternativesplicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding differentisoforms.

Other Names:
Rab proteins geranylgeranyltransferase component A 1, Choroideremia protein, Rab escort protein 1, REP-1, TCD protein, CHM, REP1, TCD
