Comparative Molecular Dynamics Investigation of the Electromotile Hearing Protein Prestin

The mammalian protein prestin is expressed in the lateral membrane wall of the cochlear hair outer cells and is responsible for the electromotile response of the basolateral membrane, following hyperpolarisation or depolarisation of the cells. Its impairment marks the onset of severe diseases, like...
