ABSTRACT Hearing loss is a common congenital disorder frequently associated with mutations in the connexin 26 gene (GJB2). However, recent studies found a 342-kb deletion in another gene, connexin 30 (GJB6) that causes non-syndromic recessive hearing loss in either a homozygous monogenic inheritance of Cx30 deletion or digenic inheritance of Cx30 deletion and a Cx26 mutation. The objective of this study was to screen for the 342-kb deletion in Cx30 gene in patients with non-syndromic hearing loss from Jordan. Two different PCR conditions were used to detect the 342-kb deletion of connexin 30 gene by amplifying the deletion breakpoints using specific primers. None of the patients with non-syndromic hearing loss was found to carry deletion in...
