The hair bundle is composed of stiff microvilli called stereocilia and is involved with mechanoreception of sound waves. This gene is part of a tandem duplication on chromosome 15; the second copy is a pseudogene. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Essential to the formation of horizontal top connectors between outer hair cell stereocilia. {ECO:0000250}. No Pfam Domain information is available for this gene. |kinocilium| |auditory receptor cell stereocilium organization| |detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception of sound| |auditory receptor cell morphogenesis| |auditory receptor cell development| |stereocilium tip| |inner ear auditory receptor cell differentiation| |inner ear receptor cell stereocilium organization| |detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception| |hair cell differentiation| |inner ear receptor cell development| |neuroepithelial cell differentiation| |detection of mechanical stimulus| |columnar/cuboidal epithelial cell development| |inner ear receptor cell differentiation| |mechanoreceptor differentiation| |columnar/cuboidal epithelial cell differentiation| |inner ear morphogenesis| |ear morphogenesis| |detection of external stimulus| |detection of abiotic stimulus| |cell-matrix adhesion| |sensory perception of sound| |sensory perception of mechanical stimulus| |cell-substrate adhesion| |epithelial cell development| |inner ear development| |response to mechanical stimulus| |ear development| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |embryonic organ morphogenesis| |epidermal cell differentiation| |epidermis development| |cell morphogenesis involved in neuron differentiation| |embryonic organ development| |detection of stimulus involved in sensory perception| |sensory organ development| |cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |embryonic morphogenesis| |cell surface| |neuron projection development| |epithelial cell differentiation| |detection of stimulus| |cell morphogenesis| |neuron development| |cellular component morphogenesis| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |animal organ morphogenesis| |sensory perception| |embryo development| |neuron differentiation| |epithelium development| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |response to abiotic stimulus| |cell projection organization| |nervous system process| |generation of neurons| |neurogenesis| |cell development| |tissue development| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
