Predicted to be involved in detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception and sensory perception of sound. Predicted to act upstream of or within auditory receptor cell stereocilium organization and detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception of sound. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane and stereocilium tip. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 67. Orthologous to human LHFPL5 (LHFPL tetraspan subfamily member 5).
