What is CRYM Gene Deafness?

CRYM gene deafness is an autosomal dominant type 40 genetic disorder that affects the inner ear and causes progressive hearing loss. It is caused by mutations in the CRYM gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called crystallin mu. This protein helps protect the cells in the inner ear from damage caused by loud noises and other environmental factors.

Symptoms of CRYM Gene Deafness

The symptoms of CRYM gene deafness usually start to appear in early childhood or adolescence. They include:

• Progressive hearing loss, which can range from mild to severe
• Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears
• Difficulty understanding speech, especially in noisy environments
• Sensitivity to loud noises
• Balance problems

Diagnosis of CRYM Gene Deafness

Diagnosis of CRYM gene deafness usually involves a combination of hearing tests, genetic testing, and medical history evaluation. Your doctor may perform a hearing test called an audiogram to measure your ability to hear different sounds and frequencies. Genetic testing can confirm the presence of mutations in the CRYM gene. Your doctor may also ask about your family history to determine if the condition is inherited.

NGS Genetic DNA Test for CRYM Gene Deafness

DNA Labs India offers a Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) genetic DNA test for CRYM gene deafness. This test can detect mutations in the CRYM gene, which can confirm a diagnosis of the condition. The test is performed on a sample of your blood or saliva, and the results are usually available within a few weeks.

The cost of the NGS genetic DNA test for CRYM gene deafness at DNA Labs India is INR 20,000. This includes the cost of the test kit, sample collection, and analysis.

Conclusion

CRYM gene deafness is an autosomal dominant type 40 genetic disorder that causes progressive hearing loss. If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms of this condition, it is important to seek medical attention. DNA Labs India offers an NGS genetic DNA test for CRYM gene deafness that can confirm a diagnosis and help with treatment planning. Contact us today to schedule your test.

Mutations in the CRYM gene have been associated with a specific type of autosomal dominant deafness known as Autosomal Dominant Deafness Type 40. This condition is characterized by hearing loss that is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning that a mutation in one copy of the CRYM gene is sufficient to cause the disorder.
