smpx shapes the lateral line organ and affects its mechanosensitivity. Smpx-deficiency affects the number of intact neuromasts in the PLL, possibly because of the role of the gene in directing the development of the HCs in the PLLp. Furthermore, Smpx is essential in proper kinocilium modeling and HCs mechanotransduction.
