Abstract
Mutations in the SLC26A4 gene (7q22-q31) lead to recessively inherited deafness (DFNB4) and Pendred syndrome. More than 500 pathogenic SLC26A4-variants are
currently revealed in deaf patients in different populations worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the SLC26A4 pathogenic contribution in deafness with unknown etiology in patients belonging to indigenous peoples of Southern Siberia: Tuvinians (the Tyva Republic) and Altaians (the Altai Republic).
