Six new GJB1 mutations and their phenotypic expression in Czech CMTX1 patients

Abstract

In this study we report six novel mutations p.Met1Arg, p.Leu9Phe, p.Ser17Tyr, p.Val63Phe, p.Val170Ile, p.Leu212Phe in GJB1 and their phenotypic expression. These mutations affect both intracellular and extracellular parts of the GJB1 protein.
