The tetraspan LHFPL5 is critical to establish maximal force sensitivity of the mechanotransduction channel of cochlear hair cells
Summary: The mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) channel of cochlear hair cells is gated by the tip link, but the mechanisms that establish the exquisite force sensitivity of this MET channel are not known. Here, we show that the tetraspan lipoma HMGIC fusion partner-like 5 (LHFPL5) directly couple...
