Objectives. We aimed to identify the causative mutation for siblings in a Korean family with nonsyndromic hearing loss (HL) and enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA). The siblings were a 19-year-old female with bilateral profound HL and an 11-year-old male with bilateral moderately severe HL. Methods. We extracted genomic DNA from blood samples of the siblings with HL, their parents, and 100 controls. We performed mutation analysis for SLC26A4 using direct sequencing. Results. The two siblings were compound heterozygotes with the novel mutation p.I713LfsX8 and the previously described mutation p.H723R. Their parents had heterozygous mono-allelic mutations. Father had p.I713LfsX8 mutation as heterozygous, and mother had p.H723R mutation as heterozygous. However, novel mutation p.I713LfsX8 was not detected in 100 unrelated controls. Conclusion. Both mutations identified in this study were located in the sulfate transporter and anti-sigma factor antagonist domain, the core region for membrane targeting of SulP/SLC26 anion transporters, which strongly suggests that failure in membrane trafficking by SLC26A4 is a direct cause of HL in this family. Our study could therefore provide a foundation for further investigations elucidating the SLC26A4-related mechanisms of HL.
