Genetic analysis of CLDN14 in the Chinese population affected with non-syndromic hearing loss

The CLDN14 gene, encoding the tight junction protein Claudin-14, has been proposed as a candidate causative gene affecting autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). Genetic analysis of nonsynonymous single-nucleotide variations (nsSNVs) in CLDN14 has been performed in different populations. The role of CLDN14 nsSNVs in contributing to hearing loss in Chinese populations would be investigated in this study.
