|
| Function |
In the inner ear, may be a component of the hair cell's mechanotransduction machinery that functionally couples PCDH15 to the transduction channel. Regulates transducer channel conductance and is required for fast channel adaptation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Efficient localization to the plasma membrane requires the presence of PCDH15. {ECO:0000250}.
