Manou Sommen and colleagues report a study of a targeted resequencing panel for hearing loss was developed including 79 genes for nonsyndromic hearing loss (NSH)L and selected forms of syndromic hearing loss.They established a straightforward variant classification system to deal with the large number of variants encountered and showed that after GJB2, the most commonly mutated genes in a Western-European population are TMC1, MYO15A, and MYO7A .

"We have found Alamut to be an immensely useful tool, and would recommend Alamut to anyone looking for a powerful yet straightforward software program that is able to accurately catalogue and evaluate mutations."
