Update of spectrum c.35delG and c.-23+1G>A mutations on the GJB2 gene in individuals with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss.

abstract：:Peutz-Jeghers' syndrome (PJS) is a disease with autosomal dominant inheritance, which is characterised by gastrointestinal hamartomata and characteristic melanin pigmentation. Three candidate sites for a PJS locus have recently been proposed, chromosomes 1p31-p32, 6q25 and 6p11-cen. At the first of these sites, a mult...
