Deafness: Missed mutations raise risk of hearing loss A gene associated with hereditary hearing loss may play a greater role than previously recognized in age-related auditory impairment. Many cases of autosomal dominant non-syndromic hearing loss (ADNSHL) arise from defects in KCNQ4, a protein that...
