    Summary
    This gene is a member of the cadherin superfamily. Family members encode integral membrane proteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion. It plays an essential role in maintenance of normal retinal and cochlear function. Mutations in this gene result in hearing loss and Usher Syndrome Type IF (USH1F). Extensive alternative splicing resulting in multiple isoforms has been observed in the mouse ortholog. Similar alternatively spliced transcripts are inferred to occur in human, and additional variants are likely to occur. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Transcript Variant: This variant (O) lacks an alternate in-frame exon in the 5' coding region and has a distinct 3' splice pattern, compared to variant A. The encoded isoform (CD3-a, also known as CD3 isoform 1) lacks a 5-aa segment in the N-terminal region, has a distinct C-terminus, and is shorter than isoform CD1-1.

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (Q) lacks an alternate in-frame exon in the 5' coding region, lacks several 3' exons but instead contains a distinct 3' end, compared to variant A. The encoded isoform (CD-Sa) lacks a 5-aa segment in the N-terminal region, and has a distinct and significantly shorter C-terminus, compared to isoform CD1-1.

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (C) lacks two alternate in-frame exons in the 5' and 3' coding region, compared to variant A. The resulting isoform (CD1-4) lacks a 5-aa segment near the N-terminus and a 2-aa segment near the C-terminus, compared to isoform CD1-1.
