PBID Uniprot Name Gene Alternative Organism Uniprot Description
PB0121 O75443 Alpha-tectorin TECTA DFNA12, DFNA8, DFNB21, tectorin alpha Homo_sapiens The tectorial membrane is an extracellular matrix of the inner ear that covers the neuroepithelium of the cochlea and contacts the stereocilia bundles of specialized sensory hair cells. Sound induces movement of these hair cells relative to the tectorial membrane, deflects the stereocilia and leads to fluctuations in hair-cell membrane potential, transducing sound into electrical signals.
