Prestin Contributes to Membrane Compartmentalization and Is Required for Normal Innervation of Outer Hair Cells

Outer hair cells (OHC) act as amplifiers and their function is modified by medial olivocochlear (MOC) efferents. The unique OHC motor protein, prestin, provides the molecular basis for somatic electromotility, which is required for sensitivity and frequency selectivity, the hallmarks of mammalian he...
