Grxcr1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Involved in inner ear receptor cell stereocilium organization; sensory perception of sound; and vestibular receptor cell development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including inner ear development; response to acetylcholine; and response to calcium ion. Located in kinocilium and stereocilium. Is expressed in endolymphatic duct; inner ear vestibular component; and utricle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 25. Orthologous to human GRXCR1 (glutaredoxin and cysteine rich domain containing 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Grxcr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
