Abstract

Autosomal recessive non-syndromal deafness is an extremely heterogeneous condition with at least 19 loci (DFNB1-19) already described. We have used autozygosity mapping to localise a further novel locus, DFNB20, to chromosome 11q25-qter in a consanguineous family originating from Pakistan. A region of homozygosity was observed in affected individuals spanning the interval D11S969-qter.
