Homo sapiens

Also known as C20orf145

Gene ID: 117532 | Gene type: protein coding

About TMC2

Cytogenetic location: 20p13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:2,536,573-2,643,580 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 264 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that is necesssary for mechanotransduction in cochlear hair cells of the inner ear. Mutations in this gene may underlie hereditary disorders of balance and hearing. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
