| Gene Symbol | OTOFERLIN |
| Aliases | OTOFERLINPROTEIN |
| Chromosome | 2q23.3 |
| Function | Unlike synaptotagmins, otoferlin can directly mediate vesicle fusion without synaptotagmin, as it contains multiple C2 domains that can substitute for synaptotagmin function. |
| Subcellular Localization | the active zone of the ribbon synapse in inner hair cells, where it plays essential roles in neurotransmitter release |
