Variable number of TMC1-dependent mechanotransducer channels underlie tonotopic conductance gradients in the cochlea
Mechanoelectrical transduction channel (MET) current found in stereocilia of hair cells matures over the first postnatal week. Here the authors look at the contribution of transmembrane channel-like protein 1 and 2 (TMC1 and TMC2) to MET current during development of tonotopic gradients.
