Lipid-mediated prestin organization in outer hair cell membranes and its implications in sound amplification

Prestin is a high-density motor protein in the outer hair cells (OHCs), whose conformational response to acoustic signals alters the shape of the cell, thereby playing a major role in sound amplification by the cochlea. Despite recent structures, prestin’s intimate interactions with the membrane, wh...
