0.750 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Multiple deletions affecting up to ~900-kb upstream of POU3F4 are found in DFN3 patients, suggesting the presence of essential POU3F4 enhancers in this region. 20668882 2010
Progressive hearing loss stapes fixation
0.750 Biomarker disease BEFREE Since most of the mutations reported for DFN3 thus far are associated with regions that encode the DNA binding domains of POU3F4, our results strongly suggest that the deafness in DFN3 patients is largely due to the null function of POU3F4. 19671658 2009

0.750 GeneticVariation disease UNIPROT Further mutations in Brain 4 (POU3F4) clarify the phenotype in the X-linked deafness, DFN3. 7581392 1995
Progressive hearing loss stapes fixation
0.750 GeneticVariation disease UNIPROT Association between X-linked mixed deafness and mutations in the POU domain gene POU3F4. 7839145 1995
Progressive hearing loss stapes fixation
0.750 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Since at least two DFN3-associated minideletions are situated proximal to the duplicated segment, the inversion most likely disconnects the POU3F4 gene from a regulatory element which is located at a distance of at least 400 kb upstream of the POU3F4 gene. 8589693 1995
