RIPOR2( Human )
RHO family interacting cell polarization regulator 2
Alias
C6orf32|DFNB104|DIFF40|DIFF48|FAM65B|MYONAP|PL48
This gene encodes an atypical inhibitor of the small G protein RhoA. Inhibition of RhoA activity by the encoded protein mediates myoblast fusion and polarization of T cells and neutrophils. The encoded protein is a component of hair cell stereocilia that is essential for hearing. A splice site mutation in this gene results in hearing loss in human patients.
