MARVELD2 and deafness: In addition, mutations in genes encoding the tricellular TJ components, including tricellulin (TRIC) and angulin‐2 (ILDR1), also result in human deafness (Riazuddin et al, 2006; Borck et al, 2011), which can be recapitulated in knockout mouse models (Nayak et al, 2013; Morozko et al, 2015).
