Espin, poznat i kao protein 36 autosomno recesivne gluhoće tipa 36 ili protein ektoplazmatske specializacije, jest protein koji je kod ljudikodirangenomESPN sa hromosoma 1.[1] Espin je mikrofilament-vezujući protein.
Espin je multifunkcionalni protein koji povezuje aktin. Ima glavnu ulogu u regulaciji organizacije, dimenzija, dinamike i signalnih kapaciteta specijalizacija tipa mikrovilusa bogatih aktinskim filamentima koji posreduju u senzornoj transdukciji u različitim mehanosenzornim i hemosenzornim ćelijama.[1]
Klinički značaj
Mutacije ovog gena su povezane s autosomno recesivnom neurosenzornom gluhoćom, autosomno dominantnom senzornervnom gluhoćom bez vestibulnog zahvata i DFNB36.[1]
