CIB2, defective in isolated deafness, is key for auditory hair cell mechanotransduction and survival

Abstract Defects of CIB2, calcium‐ and integrin‐binding protein 2, have been reported to cause isolated deafness, DFNB48 and Usher syndrome type‐IJ, characterized by congenital profound deafness, balance defects and blindness.
