Abstract
⺠Gene discovery for deafness facilitates genetic counseling. ⺠Cellular mechanisms leading to deafness elucidated by gene discovery. ⺠Actin-bundling protein TRIOBP is essential for stereocilia function in the inner ear. ⺠An inverted-duplication of TJP2 leads to DFNA51 dominant hearing loss. ⺠Mutations in microRNA-96 lead to DFNA50 dominant hearing loss.
