From: An innovative strategy for the molecular diagnosis of Usher syndrome identifies causal biallelic mutations in 93% of European patients

Figure 4

Prevalence and European distribution of the mutations of USH1, USH2, and USH3 genes identified in this study. For each participating country, the pie chart is equally divided in 11 sectors, representing each of the different USH1 (blue), USH2 (pink, and dark pink for the USH2 modifier PDZD7), and USH3 (green) genes. In each sector, the colored area indicates the proportion of the USH1 patients, or the proportion of the USH2 and USH3 patients, carrying mutations in the corresponding gene. The inset illustrates the proportion of three prevalent USH2A mutations relative to the total number of USH2A mutations identified, in France, Germany, Italy, and Slovenia.
