About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for COCH: The protein encoded by this gene is highly conserved in human, mouse, and chicken, showing 94% and 79% amino acididentity of human to mouse and chicken sequences, respectively. Hybridization to this gene was detected inspindle-shaped cells located along nerve fibers between the auditory ganglion and sensory epithelium. These cellsaccompany neurites at the habenula perforata, the opening through which neurites extend to innervate hair cells. Thisand the pattern of expression of this gene in chicken inner ear paralleled the histologic findings of acidophilicdeposits, consistent with mucopolysaccharide ground substance, in temporal bones from DFNA9 (autosomal dominantnonsyndromic sensorineural deafness 9) patients. Mutations that cause DFNA9 have been reported in this gene.Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. Additional splice variantsencoding distinct isoforms have been described but their biological validities have not been demonstrated. (providedby RefSeq) Gene Wiki entry for COCH |

COCH for disorders About GeneDecksing
OMIM: 603196 disorders: 601369 UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: COCH_HUMAN, O43405
Defects in COCH are the cause of deafness autosomal dominant type 9 (DFNA9) [MIM:601369]. DFNA9 is a form ofsensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, thenerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. DFNA9 is characterized by onsetin the fourth or fifth decade of life and initially involves the high frequencies. Deafness is progressive and usuallycomplete by the sixth decade. In addition to cochlear involvement, DFNA9 patients also exhibit a spectrum ofvestibular dysfunctions. Penetrance of the vestibular symptoms is often incomplete, and some patients are minimallyaffected, whereas others suffer from severe balance disturbances and episodes of vertigo. Affected individuals havemucopolysaccharide depositions in the channels of the cochlear and vestibular nerves. These depositions apparentlycause strangulation and degeneration of dendritic fibers
