Abstract excerpt
Diaphanous-related formin 1 (DIAPH1) is a formin homology F-actin elongating protein encoded by DIAPH1. Homozygous recessive variants resulting in the loss of DIAPH1 function cause seizures, cortical blindness, and microcephaly syndrome (SCBMS), but hearing loss has not been reported. In contrast, dominant variants of human DIAPH1 are associated with DFNA1 non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. The deafness...
