To better understand the specific locus of the GIPC3 mutations that cause NSHL, Chen et al. (1997) applied gene sequencing to map a new locus of autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL), and it mapped to DFNB15 on chromosome 19p. The gene discussed is GIPC3; the disease is nodular sclerosis classical Hodgkin lymphoma.
