Function | G-protein coupled receptor which has an essential role in the development of hearing and vision. Couples to G-alpha(i)-proteins, GNAI1/2/3, G-alpha(q)-proteins, GNAQ, as well as G-alpha(s)-proteins, GNAS, inhibiting adenylate cyclase (AC) activity and cAMP production. Required for the hair bundle ankle formation, which connects growing stereocilia in developing cochlear hair cells of the inner ear. In response to extracellular calcium, activates kinases PKA and PKC to regulate myelination by inhibiting the ubiquitination of MAG, thus enhancing the stability of this protein in myelin-forming cells of the auditory pathway. In retina photoreceptors, the USH2 complex is required for the maintenance of periciliary membrane complex that seems to play a role in regulating intracellular protein transport. Involved in the regulation of bone metabolism. |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VHN7}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VHN7}. Cell projection, stereocilium membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VHN7} Photoreceptor inner segment {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VHN7} Note=Localizes at the ankle region of the stereocilia. In photoreceptors, localizes at a plasma membrane microdomain in the apical inner segment that surrounds the connecting cilia called periciliary membrane complex. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8VHN7} |
Tissue Location | Expressed at low levels in adult tissues. |
