Tmc Reliance Is Biased by the Hair Cell Subtype and Position Within the Ear
Hair cells are heterogenous, enabling varied roles in sensory systems. An emerging hypothesis is that the transmembrane channel-like (Tmc) proteins of the hair cell’s mechanotransduction apparatus vary within and between organs to permit encoding of different mechanical stimuli. Five anatomical vari...
