Notes

GJB2 mutations and degree of hearing loss: a multicenter study. Spectrum of GJB2 mutations in Turkey comprises both Caucasian and Oriental variants: roles of parental consanguinity and assortative mating. GJB2 mutations: passage through Iran. GJB2 and GJB6 mutations: genotypic and phenotypic correlations in a large cohort of hearing-impaired patients. Effects of GJB2 genotypes on the audiological phenotype: variability is present for all genotypes. Functional consequences of novel connexin 26 mutations associated with hereditary hearing loss.
