Digenic inheritance of mutations in EPHA2 and SLC26A4 in Pendred syndrome

While biallelic mutations of the SLC26A4 gene cause non-syndromic hearing loss with enlarged vestibular aqueducts or Pendred syndrome, a considerable number of patients carry mono-allelic mutations. Here the authors identify EPHA2 as another causative gene of Pendred syndrome with SLC26A4.
