Abstract excerpt

In the US, approximately one in every 1000 children has hearing loss sufficiently severe to interfere with the acquisition of normal speech [Ann NY Acad Sci 630 (1991) 16]. The causes of non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL) are known to be heterogeneous, with genetic factors accounting for 50-75%[Am J Med Genet 46 (1993) 486]. Often individuals with NSHL thought to be caused by mutations in GJB2 have only one...
