Figure 1.
Chromosomal locations of genes for hearing impairment. Numbers atleft of the chromosome give the cytogenetic band assignments for each of the loci. Those genes that have been identified are denoted by asterisks and the encoded protein is shown below the chromosome. Mouse genes that are known to be, or likely to be, orthologous are shown to the left and human genes to the right. DFNB15 is in parentheses because it is equally likely to be on chromosomes 3 and 19, and USH1F is in parentheses because its cytogenetic location on chromosome 10 is unknown.
