Elucidating Biological Roles of Novel Murine Genes in Hearing Impairment in Africa
2019-09-19
Abstract excerpt
The prevalence of congenital hearing impairment (HI) is highest in Africa. Estimates evaluated genetic causes to account for 31% of HI cases in Africa, but the identification of associated causative genes mutations have been challenging. In this study, we reviewed the potential roles, in humans, of 38 novel genes identified in a murine study. We gathered information from various genomic annotation databases and pe...
