Actin and microtubules are involved in the structure and function of cells throughout the body, including those in the inner ear that contribute to balance and spatial orientation. Defects in these proteins can therefore affect balance and potentially lead to dizziness or vertigo. The other senses listed are not as directly linked to these cytoskeletal proteins.
