Whrn - whirlin Gene
Also Known as wi; Ush2d; Dfnb31; 1110035G07Rik; C430046P22Rik
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
This gene encodes a protein required for elongation and actin polymerization in the hair cell stereocilia. The encoded protein is localized to the cytoplasm and co-localizes with the growing end of actin filaments. Mutations in this gene have been linked to deafness. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]
