FMN1 gene is essential for hearing, study reveals
A new study has identified FMN1 as a gene required for hearing in both humans and mice, revealing a previously unknown role for formin-1 in maintaining the microscopic cellular architecture of the inner ear. The findings also point to a connection between FMN1 and pigmentation through a molecular complex involved in melanosome transport, providing new insight into how disruption of a single gene…
