Abstract excerpt
Mutations in mitochondrial DNA have been implicated in both, non-syndromic and aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss. In the present study, we have performed the systematic mutation screening of the COI/tRNA(Ser(UCN)) genes in 250 unrelated Polish subjects with hearing impairment. Three different homoplasmic sequence variants were identified, including one common polymorphism m.7476 C>T in tRNA(Ser(UCN)) and two...
