Abstract

Autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing impairment (ARNSHI) is the most common form of prelingual inherited hearing impairment (HI). Here is described the mapping of a novel ARNSHI locus in a consanguineous Pakistani family with profound congenital HI. Two-point and multipoint linkage analyses were performed for the genome scan and fine mapping markers. Haplotypes were constructed to determine the region of homozygosity. At theta = 0, the maximum two-point LOD score of 4.0 was obtained at marker AAC040. A maximum multipoint LOD score of 5.3 was derived at marker D12S320, with the three-unit support interval demarcated by D12S89 and D12S1042. The region of homozygosity is flanked by markers D12S358 and D12S1042, which corresponds to 22.4 cM according to the Rutgers combined linkage-physical map of the human genome and spans 15.0 Mb on the sequence-based physical map. A novel ARNSHI locus DFNB62 was mapped to chromosome 12p13.2-p11.23. DFNB62 represents the second ARNSHI locus to map to chromosome 12.
