The frequency dependence of prestin-mediated fast electromotility for mammalian cochlear amplification

2024-05-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Prestin’s voltage-driven motor activity confers sound-elicited somatic electromotility in auditory outer hair cells (OHCs) and is essential for the exquisite sensitivity and frequency selectivity of mammalian hearing. Lack of prestin results in hearing threshold shifts across frequency, supporting the causal association of variants in the prestin-coding gene, SLC26A5 , with human hearing loss,...
