Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The GJB2 gene, mapping to chromosome 13q12, encodes a gap junction protein, connexin 26, and is responsible for certain forms of congenital deafness, such as DFNB1 and DFNA3. Mutations of this gene are responsible for about one half of severe autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness. METHODS: To determine whether GJB2 mutations are major causes of deafness in Chinese cochlear implant recipients, we...
