Three small unrelated families segregating the combination of deafness and retinal dystrophy were studied by exome sequencing (ES). The proband of Family 1 was found to be compound heterozygous for NM_004525.3: LRP2: c.5005A > G, p.(Asn1669Asp) and c.149C > G, p.(Thr50Ser). In Family 2, two sisters were found to...
