Novel mutation in the KCNQ4 gene in a large kindred with dominant progressive hearing lossZ Talebizadeh
Center for Hereditary Communication Disorders, Boys Town National Research Hospital, Omaha, Nebraska
Hum Mutat 14:493-501. 1999..Mutation analysis of KCNQ4 was also performed on 80 unrelated probands from families with recessive or dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss. None of these cases showed a truncated mutation in KCNQ4...
