These five pathogenetic HDV loci are associated with the susceptibility of osteopetrosis (CLCN7), hearing loss (GJB2), cardiomyopathy (PRDM16), arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 1 (TGFB3), and sucrase-isomaltase deficiency (SI), respectively. This evidence concerns the gene CLCN7 and osteopetrosis.
