Abstract excerpt
SOX10 is a causative gene of Waardenburg syndrome (WS) that is a rare genetic disorder characterized by hearing loss and pigment disturbance. More than 100 mutations of SOX10 have been found in patients with Type 2 WS (WS2), Type 4 WS (WS4), and more complex syndromes. However, no mutation hotspot has been detected in SOX10, and most cases are sporadic, making it difficult to establish a correlation between the...
