The Past Prior to 1994, only three loci for nonsyndromic hearing impairment (NSHI) had been identified. In the late 1980s, a sex-linked form of NSHI was mapped to Xql3-q21. 1 in …
Chromosome 21 is the smallest human autosome. An extra copy of chromosome 21 causes Down syndrome, the most frequent genetic cause of significant mental retardation, which …
Cochlear implantation has become the standard‐of‐care for adults and children with severe to profound hearing loss. There is growing evidence that qualitative as well as quantitative …

To contribute to the development of the transcription map of human chromosome 21 (HC21), we have used exon trapping from pools of HC21-specific cosmids. Using selected trapped …

Hereditary deafness has proved to be extremely heterogeneous genetically with more than 40 genes mapped or cloned for non-syndromic dominant deafness and 30 for autosomal …

▪ Abstract Hereditary isolated hearing loss is genetically highly heterogeneous. Over 100 genes are predicted to cause this disorder in humans. Sixty loci have been reported and 24 …

We have isolated cDNA clones for a novel human protein, TRPC7 (transient receptor potential-related channels), which consists of 1503 amino acid residues from the fetal brain …
Non‐syndromic deafness is a paradigm of genetic heterogeneity with 85 loci and 39 nuclear disease genes reported so far. Autosomal‐recessive genes are responsible for about 80 …
Given the unique biological requirements of sound transduction and the selective advantage conferred upon a species capable of sensitive sound detection, it is not surprising that up to …
