A genotype-phenotype correlation for GJB2 (connexin 26) deafness.
INTRODUCTION Mutations in GJB2 are the most common cause of non-syndromic autosomal recessive hearing impairment, ranging from mild to profound. Mutation analysis of this gene is widely available as a genetic diagnostic test. OBJECTIVE To assess a possible genotype-phenotype correlation for GJB2. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of audiometric data from people with hearing impairment, segregat...
متن کاملConnexin26 mutations associated with the most common form of non-syndromic neurosensory autosomal recessive deafness (DFNB1) in Mediterraneans.
Non-syndromic neurosensory autosomal recessive deafness (NSRD) is the most common form of genetic hearing loss. Previous studies defined at least 15 human NSRD loci. Recently we demonstrated that DFNB1, located on the long arm of chromosome 13, accounts for approximately 80% of cases in the Mediterranean area. Further analysis with additional markers now identifies several recombinants which na...
متن کاملA Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) Analysis of Connexin 26 (GJB2) Gene Common Mutation (235delC) In Indonesian Patients with Prelingual Nonsyndromic Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A Preliminary Study
Background: Inherited hearing impairment affects about 1 in 1000 newborns. Up to 50 percent of all patients with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic prelingual deafness in many populations have mutations in the gene encoding the gap junction protein connexin 26 (GJB2) at locus DFNB1 (autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness) on chromosome 13q11-12. In East Asia, there is a common mutation (235del...
متن کاملA novel compound heterozygous mutation (35delG, 363delC) in the Connexin 26 gene causes non-syndromic autosomal recessive hearing loss.
Mutations in the Connexin 26 (Cx26) gene are a common cause of hereditary hearing loss in different populations. In the present study, an Iranian patient with bilateral hearing loss underwent molecular analysis for the causative mutation. DNA studies were performed for the Cx26 gene by PCR and sequencing methods. We describe a novel compound heterozygous mutation (35delG, 363delC) in the Cx26 g...
متن کاملغربالگری ناشنوایان غیرسندرمی جسمی مغلوب برای جایگاه کروموزومی ناشنوایی غیرسندرمی با وراثت مغلوب نوع I(DFNB1) در استان‌های آذربایجان شرقی و غربی
Background & Aim: Hereditary hearing loss(HHL) affects one in 1000-2000 newborns and more than 50% of these cases have a genetic base. About 70% of HHL are nonsyndromic with autosomal recessive forms accounting for 85% of the genetic load. Different genes have been reported to be involved, but mutations in GJB2 gene at DFNB1 locus have been established as the basis of autosomal recessive no...
