Early Childhood Deafness - Researchers at the Göttingen Campus Decipher the Structure and Function of a Central Auditory Protein
Researchers in Göttingen have elucidated the structure and function of otoferlin - a protein that plays a crucial role in the hearing process. If otoferlin is missing or its function is impaired, this causes a common form of early childhood deafness. The results published in the journal "Science Advances" mark a milestone after more than two decades of research on otoferlin at the Göttingen Campus and contribute to optimising the first gene therapies for the treatment of deafness.
