## Abstract We report on three novel polymorphisms in and around the Ξ² globin gene. Two of them are intronic (IVS2) polymorphisms (IVS 2 nt 200β203 (βCTTT) and IVS2 82β83 (βAG)). The third is a novel GβC substitution at nt +1707 related to the Ξ² globin cap site. This +1707 GβC polymorphism was dete

The Usher syndromes are autosomal recessive hereditary disorders characterized by hearing impairment and progressive visual loss due to Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP). Moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss and progressive RP characterizes Usher syndrome type IIa (USH2A), which maps to the long ar
Mutations in the connexin 26 gene (GJB2), which encodes a gap-junction protein and is expressed in the inner ear, have been shown to be responsible for a major part of nonsyndromic hereditary prelingual (early-childhood) deafness in Caucasians. We have sequenced the GJB2 gene in 39 Japanese patients
## Abstract The SmithβLemliβOpitz syndrome (SLOS), or RSH syndrome, is a wellβcharacterized multiple congenital anomalies/mental retardation syndrome. The phenotype has been redefined to include mildly affected individuals with minor anomalies and developmental delay, and severe malformations with
We report new mutations in exon 9 of the WT1 gene that did not alter the ratio of +/-KTS splice isoforms in two unrelated patients with Frasier syndrome (FS). The mutation of intron 9 inducing defective alternative splicing was reported to be responsible for this syndrome. The mutations found in our
