2q23-q24.3 | Deafness, autosomal dominant 16 | 603964 | AD | 2 |
Fukushima et al. (1999) reported a family in which 13 members over 4 generations had a form of autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, designated DFNA16, in which the phenotype included rapidly progressing and fluctuating hearing loss that appeared to respond to steroid therapy. Hearing-impaired persons stated that they had normal or nearly normal hearing until age 9 to 10 years.
Fukushima et al. (1999) demonstrated that the DFNA16 locus maps to 2q23-q24.3 and is tightly linked to markers in the D2S2380-D2S335 interval. They noted that several voltage-gated sodium-channel genes map to the DFNA16 interval, making these cationic channels excellent DFNA16 candidate genes from both a positional and a functional point of view.

A gene for fluctuating, progressive autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, DFNA16, maps to chromosome 2q23-24.3. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 65: 141-150, 1999.

Dear OMIM User,
To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90% of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the information that you need at your fingertips.
Thank you in advance for your generous support,
