Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed target exon sequencing using a next generation sequencer about 19 hearing loss patients and 42 family members. The gene panel covered bout 18 genes and Usher syndrome genes, and Waardenburg syndrome genes. We used Sureselect and Ilumina Miseq. We assessed SNPs and indels using ANNOVAR software. We prioritized these by their minor allele frequency less than 3% using allele frenquency data from several public database including the 1000 Genomes Project and the NHLBI-6500 Exomes, DB exome data from Kyoto university, and in house variant database. Pathogenic gene candidates identified by exome sequencing, inherited pattern of 3 genes were confirmed as 19 genes. Three cases of autosomal resessive genes CDH23、USH2A,TMPRSS, was recognized variations which were not reported before. The NGS analysis could identify the extensive gene variation not covered all in the existing genetic test.
