Variable number of TMC1-dependent mechanotransducer channels underlie tonotopic conductance gradients in the cochlea

Functional mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) channels of cochlear hair cells require the presence of transmembrane channel-like protein isoforms TMC1 or TMC2. We show that TMCs are required for normal stereociliary bundle development and distinctively influence channel properties. TMC1-dependent...
