Abstract
To report two DFNA5 pathogenic splice-site variations and a novel benign frameshift variation to further support the gain-of-function mechanism of DFNA5 related hearing impairment, targeted genes capture and next generation sequencing were performed on selected members from Family 1007208, 1007081 and a sporadic case with sensorineural hearing loss. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction was conducted on the proband from Family 1007208 to test how the splice-site variation affects the transcription in RNA level. A novel heterozygous splice-site variation c.991-3 C > A in DFNA5 was found in Family 1007208; a known hotspot heterozygous splice-site variation c.991-15_991_13delTTC was identified in Family 1007081. Both the splice-site variations were segregated with the late onset hearing loss phenotype, leading to the skipping of exon 8 at RNA level. In addition, a novel DFNA5 frameshift variation c.116_119delAAAA was found in the sporadic case, but was not segregated with the hearing impairment phenotype. In conclusion, we identified one novel and one known pathogenic DFNA5 splice-site variation in two Chinese Families, as well as a novel DFNA5 frameshift variation c.116_119delAAAA in a sporadic case, which does not the ...Continue Reading
