| Synopsis: |
|
Wide-range frequency hearing loss |
| Detailed Phenotype Description: |
|
This autosomal recessive mutation (tmgc54) linked to Chr 10, was detected in the progeny of C57BL/6JRn males given a single dose of 200 mg/kg ENU. The mutation is maintained on a segregating C3.BLiA:C57BL/6 background. We have tested a total of 19 mice in 4 generations of the 62TNW pedigree. This pedigree shows significant hearing loss at all frequencies (Mutant Detail PDF). When compared to all other TNW/I pedigrees, ABR thresholds of 62TNW are elevated significantly at click (4.4 x SD), 8 kHz (4.1 x SD), 16 (4.7 x SD) and 32 kHz (3.3 x SD). Wide-range frequency hearing loss is characteristic of congenital deafness in humans. Thus this mutant could provide a model for such a common disorder.
