Abstract excerpt
P2RX2 encodes the P2X2 receptor, which is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) gated (purinoreceptor) ion channel. P2RX2 c. 178G > T (p.V60L) mutation was previously identified in two unrelated Chinese families, as the cause of human DFNA41, a form of dominant, early-onset and progressive sensorineural hearing loss. We generated and characterized a knock-in mouse model based on human p.V60L mutation that recapitulates...
