Connexin 26 gene linked to a dominant deafness
Copyright policy )Connexin 26 gene linked to a dominant deafness
A high proportion of all cases of congenital deafness is causedby mutations in a gene coding for a gap-junction protein,connexin 26. The deafness associated with this gene, Cx26, is the autosomal recessive form, DFNB1(refs 1–3); its involvement in autosomal dominant forms of deafness has remained controversial4. Here we show that a mutation in Cx26 underlies the dominant form of deafness, DFNA3.
