Abstract excerpt
Genes involved in the hearing process have been identified through both positional cloning efforts following genetic linkage studies of families with heritable deafness and by candidate gene approaches based on known functional properties or inner ear expression. The latter method of gene discovery may employ a tissue- or organ-specific approach. Through characterization of a human fetal cochlear cDNA library, we...
