Research Abstract |
Target exon resequencing using Massively Parallel DNA Sequencing (MPS) is a new powerful strategy to discover causative genes in rare Mendelian disorders such as deafness. We attempted to identify genomic variations responsible for deafness by massive sequencing of the exons of the 112 target candidate genes. By the analysis of 216 (120 early-onset and 96 late-detected) randomly selected Japanese deafness patients, who had already been evaluated for common genes/mutations, we efficiently identified causative mutations and/or mutation candidates in 51 genes that could be used to initiate searching for responsible genes. Approximately 63.4% (137/216) of the patients had at least one mutation.
