Function |
Required for normal development and maintenance of cochlear hair cell bundles. Anchoring/scaffolding protein that is a part of the functional network formed by USH1C, USH1G, CDH23 and MYO7A that mediates mechanotransduction in cochlear hair cells. Required for normal hearing (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytosol. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Colocalizes with F-actin (By similarity). Detected at the tip of cochlear hair cell stereocilia. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in small intestine, colon, kidney, eye and weakly in pancreas. Expressed also in vestibule of the inner ear. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12588794}.
