Alternate names for this Gene: AIE-75|DFNB18|DFNB18A|NY-CO-37|NY-CO-38|PDZ-45|PDZ-73|PDZ-73/NY-CO-38|PDZ73|PDZD7C|ush1cpst
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a scaffold protein that functions in the assembly of Usher protein complexes. The protein contains PDZ domains, a coiled-coil region with a bipartite nuclear localization signal and a PEST degradation sequence. Defects in this gene are the cause of Usher syndrome type 1C and non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal recessive type 18. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 11
Location in Chromosome : 11p15.1
Description of this Gene: USH1 protein network component harmonin
Type of Gene: protein-coding
