Title: [Application of next generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing in a pedigree affected with hereditary non-syndromic deafness].
Abstract: To detect potential mutation in a pedigree affected with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness.Mutation analysis was carried out by next generation sequencing, and suspected mutations were verified by Sanger sequencing.A heterozygous c.235delC mutation of the GJB2 gene, together with compound heterozygous mutations of the OTOF gene [c.1194T>A (p.D398E) and c.2180A>G (p.N727S)] were detected in the proband. The sister of the proband (also had hearing loss) has carried a heterozygous c.235delC mutation in the GJB2 gene, in addition with a heterozygous c.2180A>G(p.N727S) mutation of the OTOF gene. By Sanger sequencing, a heterozygous IVS1+2T>A mutation was further detected in the non-coding region of the GJB2 gene in both sisters.The compound heterozygous c.235delC and IVS1+2T>A mutations of the GJB2 gene probably account for the hearing loss in the two sisters, among which IVS1+2T>A is considered as a novel pathogenic mutation of the GJB2 gene.
