Genes affected

CHRNA9 (HGNC:14079): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 9 subunit) This gene is a member of the ligand-gated ionic channel family and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor gene superfamily. It encodes a plasma membrane protein that forms homo- or hetero-oligomeric divalent cation channels. This protein is involved in cochlea hair cell development and is also expressed in the outer hair cells (OHCs) of the adult cochlea. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

The c.347A>G (p.D116G) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the CHRNA9 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 347, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 116 to be replaced by a glycine (G). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
