Frequency of GJB2 mutations GJB6‐D13S1830 and GJB6‐D13S1854 deletions among patients with non‐syndromic hearing loss from the central region of Iran

摘要

BackgroundIn the present study, we investigate the prevalence of the GJB2 gene mutations, and deletions in the GJB6 gene, namely del (GJB6‐D13S1830) and del (GJB6‐D13S1854), in patients with autosomal recessive non‐syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) from the central region of Iran.
