Full name: otoancorin

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Summary: Acts upstream of or within cell-matrix adhesion; sensory perception of sound; and transmission of nerve impulse. Located in apical plasma membrane. Is expressed in inner ear; male reproductive gland or organ; small intestine; and trachea. Used to study autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 22. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 22. Orthologous to human OTOA (otoancorin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
