Analyses of del(GJB6‐D13S1830) and del(GJB6‐D13S1834) deletions in a large cohort with hearing loss: Caveats to interpretation of molecular test results in multiplex families
Abstract Background Mutations involving the closely linked GJB2 and GJB6 at the DFNB1 locus are a common genetic cause of profound congenital hearing loss in many populations. In some deaf GJB2 heterozygotes, a 309 kb deletion involving the GJB6 has been found to be the cause for hearing loss when i...
