Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: De novo variants (DNVs) are a well-recognized cause of genetic disorders. The contribution of DNVs to hearing loss (HL) is poorly characterized. We aimed to evaluate the rate of DNVs in HL-associated genes and assess their contribution to HL. METHODS: Targeted genomic enrichment and massively parallel sequencing were used for molecular testing of all exons and flanking intronic sequences of known...
