Mutation Analysis of GJB2 and GJB6 Genes and the Genetic Linkage Analysis of Five Common DFNB Loci in the Iranian Families with Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss
The incidence of pre-lingual hearing loss (HL) is about 1 in 1000 neonates. More than 60% of cases are inherited. Non-syndromic HL (NSHL) is extremely heterogeneous: more than 130 loci have been identified so far. The most common form of NSHL is the autosomal recessive form (ARNSHL). In this study, a cohort of 36 big ARNSHL pedigrees with 4 or more patients from 7 provinces of Iran was investig...
متن کاملScreening of DFNB3 in Iranian families with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss reveals a novel pathogenic mutation in the MyTh4 domain of the MYO15A gene in a linked family
Objective(s): Non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (NSHL) is a common disorder affecting approximately 1 in 500 newborns. This type of hearing loss is extremely heterogeneous and includes over 100 loci. Mutations in the GJB2 gene have been implicated in about half of autosomal recessive NSHL (ARNSHL) cases, making this the most common cause of ARNSHL. For the latter form of deafness, most f...
متن کاملThe Pattern of Linkage Disequilibrium in Livestock Genome
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is bases of genomic selection, genomic marker imputation, marker assisted selection (MAS), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, parentage testing and whole genome association studies. The Particular alleles at closed loci have a tendency to be co-inherited. In linked loci this pattern leads to association between alleles in population which is known as LD. Two metr...
متن کاملGenetic dissection of two Pakistani families with consanguineous localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis (LAH)
Objective(s): Genetic analysis of two consanguineous Pakistani families with localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis was performed with the goal to establish genotype-phenotype correlation. Materials and Methods: Genomic DNA extraction had been done from peripheral blood samples. Extracted DNA was then subjected to PCR (polymerase chain reaction) for amplification. Linkage analysis was perf...
متن کاملThe congenital "ant-egg" cataract phenotype is caused by a missense mutation in connexin46.
PURPOSE "Ant-egg" cataract is a rare, distinct variety of congenital/infantile cataract that was reported in a large Danish family in 1967. This cataract phenotype is characterized by ant-egg-like bodies embedded in the lens in a laminar configuration and is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. We retrieved the family and performed linkage analysis to determine the disease locus and identi...
