Targeted gene(s)/phenotype under study

SLC12A2

Abstract

De novo heterozygous variants in SLC12A2 affecting exon 21 are associated with non-syndromal deafness.  De novo variants in other parts of the gene are associated with a neurodevelopmental disorder.  Bi-allelic variants are associated with a more severe phenotype.  We wish to identify further individuals with SLC12A2 variants to confirm the phenotypic spectrum.
