Whole-Exome Sequencing Efficiently Detects Rare Mutations in Autosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss
Identification of the pathogenic mutations underlying autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) is difficult, since causative mutations in 39 different genes have so far been reported. After excluding mutations in the most common ARNSHL gene, GJB2, via Sanger sequencing, we performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) in 30 individuals from 20 unrelated multiplex consanguineous families ...
متن کاملAutosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss: A Case Report with a Mutation in TRIOBP Gene
Hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensory defect. Various genetic as well as environmental factors have been shown to contribute in it. More than 100 loci have been recognized to cause autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). Here, we report a 6-year old female patient with bilateral pre-lingual HL in whom a mutation has been identified in TRIOBP gene (c.6362C>T, S2121L). In s...
متن کاملRefCNV: Identification of Gene-Based Copy Number Variants Using Whole Exome Sequencing
With rapid advances in DNA sequencing technologies, whole exome sequencing (WES) has become a popular approach for detecting somatic mutations in oncology studies. The initial intent of WES was to characterize single nucleotide variants, but it was observed that the number of sequencing reads that mapped to a genomic region correlated with the DNA copy number variants (CNVs). We propose a metho...
متن کاملIdentification of a Novel MYO15A Mutation in a Chinese Family with Autosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss
Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) is a genetically heterogeneous sensorineural disorder, generally manifested with prelingual hearing loss and absence of other clinical manifestations. The aim of this study is to identify the pathogenic gene in a four-generation consanguineous Chinese family with ARNSHL. A novel homozygous variant, c.9316dupC (p.H3106Pfs*2), in the myoxin X...
متن کاملImplementation and Optimization of Annotation and Interpretation Step of Next-Generation Sequencing Data for Non-Syndromic Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss
Introduction: The precision and time required for analysis of data in next-generation sequencing (NGS) depends on many factors including the tools utilized for alignment, variant calling, annotation and filtering of variants, personnel expertise in data analysis and interpretation, and computational capacity of the lab and its optimization is a challenging task. Method: An application software...
