WFS1 autosomal dominant variants linked with hearing loss: update on structural analysis and cochlear implant outcome
Abstract Background Wolfram syndrome type 1 gene (WFS1), which encodes a transmembrane structural protein (wolframin), is essential for several biological processes, including proper inner ear function. Unlike the recessively inherited Wolfram syndrome, WFS1 heterozygous variants cause DFNA6/14/38 a...
