High impact information on stm

Mutated otopetrin 1 affects the genesis of otoliths and the localization of Starmaker in zebrafish [1].
We examined the localization of Starmaker, a secreted protein that is highly abundant in otoliths in backstroke mutants [1].
Starmaker protein accumulated within cells of the otic epithelium, indicating a possible defect in secretion [1].
We report that a previously unknown gene, starmaker, is required in zebrafish for otolith morphogenesis [2].
