== Disease == | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PCD15_MOUSE PCD15_MOUSE]] Defects in Pcdh15 are the cause of the Ames waltzer (av) phenotype. It is characterized by deafness and a balance disorder, associated with the degeneration of inner ear neuroepithelia. [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CAD23_MOUSE CAD23_MOUSE]] Defects in Cdh23 are the cause of waltzer (v) phenotype. Waltzer mice are characterized by deafness and vestibular dysfunction due to degeneration of the neuroepithelium within the inner ear. | |||
== Function == | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PCD15_MOUSE PCD15_MOUSE]] Calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein. Required for inner ear neuroepithelial cell elaboration and cochlear function. Probably involved in the maintenance of normal retinal function. [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CAD23_MOUSE CAD23_MOUSE]] Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells. CDH23 is required for establishing and/or maintaining the proper organization of the stereocilia bundle of hair cells in the cochlea and the vestibule during late embryonic/early postnatal development. It is part of the functional network formed by USH1C, USH1G, CDH23 and MYO7A that mediates mechanotransduction in cochlear hair cells. Required for normal hearing.<ref>PMID:11138008</ref> | |||
