Normal Hearing Sensitivity at Low-to-Middle Frequencies with 34% Prestin-Charge Density

The mammalian outer hair cells (OHCs) provide a positive mechanical feedback to enhance the cochlea's hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity. Although the OHC-specific, somatic motor protein prestin is required for cochlear amplification, it remains unclear whether prestin can provide su...
