Abstract

A Spanish family with three Usher I syndrome-affected members was linked to markers located on chromosome 11q. A search for mutations on the myosin VIIA gene revealed a novel mutation (Cys628STOP) on exon 16 segregating with the disorder in a homozygous state. This nonsense mutation could be responsible for the disease since it leads to a truncated protein that presumably has no function.
