Phase separation-mediated condensation of Whirlin-Myo15-Eps8 stereocilia tip complex

Summary: Stereocilia, the mechanosensory organelles on the apical surface of hair cells, are necessary to detect sound and carry out mechano-electrical transduction. An electron-dense matrix is located at the distal tips of stereocilia and plays crucial roles in the regulation of stereocilia morphol...
