Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Humanized sequence)
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: CRISPR/Cas9 technology generated a G to A change at position 1325 resulting in a cysteine to tyrosine substitution at residue 442 in exon 13. The C442Y missense variant is seen in patients with autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss. (J:288210)
