Features include always present findings: Inner ear hearing loss (sensorineural hearing impairment); and common findings: Abnormal vestibular function.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Ears | 2 | Abnormal vestibular function, Inner ear hearing loss (sensorineural hearing impairment) |
Age of onset: at birth.
COCH encodes cochlin (550 aa). Plays a role in the control of cell shape and motility in the trabecular meshwork Highest expression in Brain Nucleus accumbens basal ganglia (51.8 TPM) and Brain Caudate basal ganglia (37.3 TPM).
Hearing loss, autosomal recessive 110 is associated with mutations in the COCH gene on chromosome 14.
The COCH protein participates in Unknown NAT transfers COCH3 to AFXBO-C, AFNBO-C, Mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) channel transports cations into the cytosol of stereocilia of cochlear outer hair cell, and Sensory processing of sound by outer hair cells of the cochlea pathways.
COCH is classified as a druggable target (Druggable Genome and Transporter categories) with score 1.3.
Genetic testing for COCH is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 1 always present feature, 1 common feature.
No clinical trials have been registered for hearing loss, autosomal recessive 110.
4 publications have been identified in PubMed for hearing loss, autosomal recessive 110. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (75%) and Epidemiology / Natural History (25%).
