Abstract
Inherited hearing impairment can occur either in the presence of other clinical features (syndromic hearing loss, SHL) or in isolation (non- syndromic hearing loss, NSHL), The latter is more common and is highly heterogeneous, To date, six NSHL loci have been mapped, We report the identification of a seventh locus (DFNA4) on chromosome 19q13 and sug gest DM kinase as a possible candidate gene.
