Schematic representation of the deafness-associated linkage region in the three North African families. A comparison between the linkage regions associated with the hearing impairment in the two previously reported Tunisian families (FT13 and FT20, Ben Said et al., 2016) and the Moroccan NSHL7 family (in orange, this study) on chromosome 5q23.2-q32 is reported, and the shared region containing SLC22A4 is shown. The image is adapted from the UCSC Genome Browser.
