GRXCR2 encodes glutaredoxin and cysteine rich domain containing 2 (248 aa). Required for hearing. Plays a role in maintaining cochlear stereocilia bundles that are involved in sound detection. Ensures the restriction of TPRN to the basal region of stereocilia in hair cells Highest expression in Testis (1.1 TPM) and Heart Atrial Appendage (0.5 TPM).
Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 101 is associated with mutations in the GRXCR2 gene on chromosome 5.
GRXCR2 is classified as a druggable target with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for GRXCR2 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 1 always present feature.
No clinical trials have been registered for autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 101.
2 publications have been identified in PubMed for autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 101. Research spans Clinical Trial Publication (50%) and Epidemiology / Natural History (50%).
