Analysis of TMIE gene mutations including the first large deletion of exon 1 with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness

Abstract Background Transmembrane inner ear (TMIE) protein is an essential component of the mechanotransduction complex. In collaboration with other components, TMIE aids the maintenance and function of the sensory hair cells. Autosomal recessive deafness-6 (DFNB6) is caused by mutated TMIE, a gene...
