In silico modeling of the pore region of a KCNQ4 missense mutant from a patient with hearing loss
BACKGROUND: Mutation of the voltage-gated potassium channel KCNQ4 causes DFNA2-type nonsyndromic autosomal dominant sensorineural hearing loss. KCNQ4 is expressed predominantly in the auditory sensory outer hair cells, which are critical for sound amplification. RESULTS: We sequenced KCNQ4 from Japa...
