WHRN - whirlin Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as WI; CIP98; USH2D; DFNB31; PDZD7B

Gene ID: 25861 | Gene type: protein coding

About WHRN

Cytogenetic location: 9q32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:114,402,080-114,505,473 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 289 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Broad expression in adrenal (RPKM 14.4), testis (RPKM 9.7) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is thought to function in the organization and stabilization of sterocilia elongation and actin cystoskeletal assembly, based on studies of the related mouse gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness and Usher Syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
