What is the function of this protein?
Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins.  They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells.  CDH23 is required for establishing and/or maintaining the proper organization of the stereocilia bundle of hair cells in the cochlea and the vestibule during late embryonic/early postnatal development.  It is part of the functional network formed by USH1C, USH1G, CDH23 and MYO7A that mediates mechanotransduction in cochlear hair cells.  Required for normal hearing.
What are the official names of this protein?
Cadherin-23, Otocadherin.
What are the subcellular locations of this protein?
Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
