Comment:

Some males showed early-onset (7–20 years of age) moderate hearing loss with an upward sloping audio profile, with low to middle frequency hearing impairment, but retained the ability to hear high frequency sounds, whereas other male patients exhibited profound hearing loss and a flat audio profile with a later onset. Female carriers can be normal or abnormal, but if they were abnormal, their hearing impairment was less profound than the affected males (PMID:26089585).

Clinical Description OMIM Tyson et al. (1996) reevaluated a 4-generation British American family with congenital profound sensorineural hearing loss in males, similar to that ascribed to the previously unmapped locus DFN2. In this family, female carriers had a mild/moderate hearing loss affecting ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In a large 5-generation Chinese family segregating X-linked nonsyndromic hearing loss mapping to the DNF2 locus, Liu et al. (2010) analyzed 14 candidate genes and identified a missense mutation in the PRPS1 gene (D65N; 311850.0013) that cosegregated with the ...
