Summary: Enables actin binding activity and protein phosphatase binding activity. Involved in sensory perception of sound and stereocilium maintenance. Acts upstream of or within auditory receptor cell stereocilium organization. Located in microvillus and stereocilium base. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; immune system; respiratory system; and submandibular gland. Used to study autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 79. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 79. Orthologous to human TPRN (taperin).

Tprn is critical to the retention of the integrity of the stereociliary rootlet. Loss of Tprn in Tprn-null mice caused the disruption of the stereociliary rootlet, which resulted in damage to stereociliary bundles and hearing impairments.

Stereocilia lacking GRXCR2 are longer than normal and disorganized due to the mislocalization of taperin, which could modulate the actin cytoskeleton in stereocilia.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
