## Abstract Hyperekplexia is commonly familial and with dominant transmission. The gene involved, __GLRA1,__ encodes the Ξ±1 subunit of the glycine receptor. We describe 3 affected children homozygous for a new mutation, R100H. Both parents were heterozygous carriers; while the father was healthy, t

We have detected a novel mitochondrial mutation in a maternal pedigree, at least 13 of whose members have sensorineural hearing loss of varying severity, but who exhibit no other pathological features. The mutation, at np 7445, converts the 3' terminal T residue of tRNA-ser(UCN) to a C, and also bri
