Also known as CIP98, PDZD7B, USH2D, WI, DFNB31, whirlin, Whirin
Whirlin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DFNB31 gene.
This gene is thought to function in the organization and stabilization of sterocilia elongation and actin cystoskeletal assembly, based on studies of the related mouse gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness and Usher Syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Whirlin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DFNB31 gene.
In rat brain, WHRN interacts with a calmodulin-dependent serine kinase, CASK, and may be involved in the formation of scaffolding protein complexes that facilitate synaptic transmission in the central nervous system (CNS). Mutations in this gene, also known as WHRN, cause autosomal recessive deafness.
