Mutations in the two ribosomal RNA genes in mitochondrial DNA among Finnish children with hearing impairment

BACKGROUND: Mutations in the two MT-RNR genes in mitochondrial DNA can cause hearing impairment that presents with variable severity and age of onset. In order to study the prevalence of mutations in MT-RNR1 and MT-RNR2 genes among Finnish children, we studied a ten-year cohort of hearing impaired c...
