Mutations in this gene are a cause of neurosensory nonsyndromic recessive deafness, DFNB9. The short form of the encoded protein has 3 C2 domains, a single carboxy-terminal transmembrane domain found also in the C. elegans spermatogenesis factor FER-1 and human dysferlin, while the long form has 6 C2 domains. The homology suggests that this protein may be involved in vesicle me... See more...

Entrez Gene Summary for OTOF Gene

  • Mutations in this gene are a cause of neurosensory nonsyndromic recessive deafness, DFNB9. The short form of the encoded protein has 3 C2 domains, a single carboxy-terminal transmembrane domain found also in the C. elegans spermatogenesis factor FER-1 and human dysferlin, while the long form has 6 C2 domains. The homology suggests that this protein may be involved in vesicle membrane fusion. Several transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been found for this gene.

GeneCards Summary for OTOF Gene

OTOF (Otoferlin) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with OTOF include Deafness, Autosomal Recessive 9 and Otof-Related Deafness. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include calcium ion binding and AP-2 adaptor complex binding. An important paralog of this gene is FER1L6.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary for OTOF Gene

  • Key calcium ion sensor involved in the Ca(2+)-triggered synaptic vesicle-plasma membrane fusion and in the control of neurotransmitter release at these output synapses. Interacts in a calcium-dependent manner to the presynaptic SNARE proteins at ribbon synapses of cochlear inner hair cells (IHCs) to trigger exocytosis of neurotransmitter. Also essential to synaptic exocytosis in immature outer hair cells (OHCs). May also play a role within the recycling of endosomes (By similarity).

  • Deafness, autosomal recessive, 9 (DFNB9) [MIM:601071]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:10192385, ECO:0000269 PubMed:12127154, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16097006, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16283880, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16371502, ECO:0000269 PubMed:26437881}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
  • Auditory neuropathy, autosomal recessive, 1 (AUNB1) [MIM:601071]: A form of sensorineural hearing loss with absent or severely abnormal auditory brainstem response, in the presence of normal cochlear outer hair cell function and normal otoacoustic emissions. Auditory neuropathies result from a lesion in the area including the inner hair cells, connections between the inner hair cells and the cochlear branch of the auditory nerve, the auditory nerve itself and auditory pathways of the brainstem. In some cases AUNB1 phenotype can be temperature sensitive. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:16371502, ECO:0000269 PubMed:18381613}.
