Gene: [03p1/MITF] microphthalmia-associated transcription factor; Waardenburg syndrome, type 2A (WS2A; MIM:193510); [WS2A ]
COM |
WS2A appears to be due to mutations in splice sites of the MITF gene (Tassbehji-1994, Tassbehji-1995)." |
PAT |
[1] The main symptoms of WS: sensorineural hearing loss, heterochromia
irides, white forelock and early graying.
[2] Unlike type I WS, WS2 shows no dystopia canthorum or facial dysmorphism and does not show linkage to 2q35 or mutation in the PAX3 gene (GEM:02q36/PAX3)." |
