Novel variants of CYP21A2 in Vietnamese patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:MYO3A, encoding the myosin IIIA protein, is associated with autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss. To date, only two missense variants located in the motor-head domain of MYO3A have been described in autosomal dominant families with progressive, mild-to-profound sensorineural h...
