Abstract excerpt
Cone alpha transducin (GNAT2), known to be expressed in photoreceptors, was found to be transcribed in human fetal cochlea. Due to the unexpected finding of expression of this gene in the inner ear and the success of the candidate gene approach in identifying mutations for a variety of heritable disorders, we investigated the possible role of this gene in Usher syndrome type I and type II.
