## Abstract The __GJB2__ gene located on chromosome 13q12 and encoding the connexin 26 (Cx26) protein, a transmembrane protein involved in cell–cell attachment of almost all tissues, including the skin, causes autosomal recessive and sometimes dominant nonsyndromic sensorineural hearing loss. __GJB
Germline mutations in the APC gene are responsible for familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), a dominantly inherited syndrome characterized by the development of hundreds to thousands of polyps in the colon and in the rectum of affected individuals and by variable extracolonic manifestations (gastric
Germline mutations within the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene, a tumor suppressor gene, are responsible for most cases of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an autosomal dominantly inherited predisposition to colorectal cancer. To date, more than 300 germ-line causative mutations within thi
