Description

Involved in eye photoreceptor cell development; response to auditory stimulus; and sensory perception of light stimulus. Predicted to localize to integral component of membrane. Used to study Usher syndrome type 2 and Usher syndrome type 2A. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Usher syndrome (multiple); nonsyndromic deafness; and retinitis pigmentosa (multiple). Is expressed in eye and photoreceptor cell. Orthologous to human USH2A (usherin).
