Specifications
Target Information
Chicken Beta-tectorin (TECTB) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the development and function of the inner ear, particularly in the formation and maintenance of the tectorial membrane. This membrane is essential for the proper functioning of hair cells, which are critical for hearing and balance. TECTB is a component of the extracellular matrix and is involved in the structural integrity of the tectorial membrane. Abnormal expression or mutations in TECTB have been associated with hearing loss and vestibular disorders. In chickens, TECTB is highly expressed in the inner ear, where it contributes to the development and maintenance of the auditory and vestibular systems.
