Additional Information:

Clinical Description OMIM Sharland et al. (1992) reported a family that appeared to validate a syndrome of palmoplantar hyperkeratosis and sensorineural deafness as an autosomal dominant disorder. Male-to-male transmission was observed. Progressive, bilateral, high-frequency sensorineural hearing loss had its onset in ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Heathcote et al. (2000) identified a missense mutation in the GJB2 gene (121011.0015) segregating with the phenotype in the family reported by Sharland et al. (1992) with deafness and palmoplantar keratoderma. Heathcote et al. (2000) proposed that the ...
