Protein attributes
| Sequence length | 1955 AA. |
| Sequence status | Complete. |
| Sequence processing | The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form. |
| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein. Essential for maintenance of normal retinal and cochlear function. |
| Subunit structure | Interacts with MYO7A. Interacts with CDH23 By similarity. |
| Subcellular location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein By similarity. |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed in brain, lung, kidney, spleen and testis. Found also in the inner and outer synaptic layers, and the nerve fiber layer in adult and fetal retinas. Found in the supporting cells, outer sulcus cells and spiral ganglion of fetal cochlea. Expressed in cytotoxic tumor-derived T- and NK-cell lines as well as biopsies of nasal NK/T-cell lymphomas. Not detected in normal or in vitro activated peripheral blood cells, CD4 or CD8 lymphocytes or NK cells. Ref.1 Ref.4 |
| Involvement in disease | Usher syndrome 1F (USH1F) [MIM:602083]: USH is a genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by the association of retinitis pigmentosa with sensorineural deafness. Age at onset and differences in auditory and vestibular function distinguish Usher syndrome type 1 (USH1), Usher syndrome type 2 (USH2) and Usher syndrome type 3 (USH3). USH1 is characterized by profound congenital sensorineural deafness, absent vestibular function and prepubertal onset of progressive retinitis pigmentosa leading to blindness. Usher syndrome 1D/F (USH1DF) [MIM:601067]: USH1DF patients are heterozygous for mutations in CDH23 and PCDH15, indicating a digenic inheritance pattern. Deafness, autosomal recessive, 23 (DFNB23) [MIM:609533]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. |
| Sequence similarities | Contains 11 cadherin domains. |
Ontologies
Alternative products
| This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select] | ||||||
| Isoform 1 (identifier: Q96QU1-1) Also known as: A; This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry. | ||||||
| Isoform 2 (identifier: Q96QU1-2) Also known as: B; The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 1-1118: Missing. 1119-1125: LRVPSKS → MTFSHSG | ||||||
| Isoform 3 (identifier: Q96QU1-3) Also known as: C; The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 957-961: GLPAS → VSRRH 962-1955: Missing. | ||||||
| Note: Ref.5 (CAD38850) sequence differs from that shown at position 957 due to erroneous termination. |
