Lineage-specific evolution of the vertebrate Otopetrin gene family revealed by comparative genomic analyses

BACKGROUND: Mutations in the Otopetrin 1 gene (Otop1) in mice and fish produce an unusual bilateral vestibular pathology that involves the absence of otoconia without hearing impairment. The encoded protein, Otop1, is the only functionally characterized member of the Otopetrin Domain Protein (ODP) f...
