  • Title: Genetic studies in a family with distal renal tubular acidosis and sensorineural deafness.
    Author: Sethi SK, Singh N, Gil H, Bagga A.
    Journal: Indian Pediatr; 2009 May; 46(5):425-7. PubMed ID: 19478356.
    Abstract:
    Distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA) with sensorineural deafness is a rare entity, inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. It is caused by mutations in the ATP6V1B1 gene, leading to defective function of H+-ATPase pump in the distal nephron, cochlea and endolymphatic sac. We report two siblings with distal RTA and sensorineural deafness having mutation in the first coding exon of the gene, resulting in a non functional protein. The parents were found to be carriers for the mutation.
