Description

Predicted to enable cell adhesion molecule binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cilium assembly; detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception of sound; and hair cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including hair cell; hatching gland; polster; sensory system; and trunk. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Usher syndrome type 1D; Usher syndrome type 1F; and autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 23. Orthologous to human PCDH15 (protocadherin related 15).
