Hearing Loss and Deafness
- Nonsyndromic Genetic Hearing Loss
One of 97 genes linked to it
Inherited hearing loss without other medical features, including the common recessive forms caused by GJB2, OTOF, SLC26A4, STRC and many other genes, as well as dominant, X-linked and mitochondrial forms.
- ClinGen rates the link strong
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Knowing the genetic cause can guide hearing support and cochlear implant decisions, gene-therapy trial eligibility (for example OTOF) and family counselling.
How RIPOR2 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 5.3 kb of the gene's 131.7 kb; 3,144 of those bases code for the protein.
