| HGNC Family | Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunits (PPP1R) |
| Name | glutaredoxin, cysteine rich 1 |
| Description | This gene is one of 60 loci associated with autosomal-recessive nonsyndromic hearing impairment. This gene encodes a protein which contains GRX-like domains; these domains play a role in the S-glutathionylation of proteins and may be involved in actin organization in hair cells.
