Contents
Mutations of the transmembrane channel-like 1 (
TMC1
) gene can cause dominant and recessive forms of deafness in humans and mice.
TMC1
is one of eight mammalian
TMC
genes of unknown function. The multi-pass transmembrane topologic structure of the proteins they encode suggests roles as a receptor, transporter, channel, or pump.
