Mechanoelectrical Transduction In Hair Cells
Description
This template shows the three-step mechanism of mechanoelectrical transduction in hair cells, starting with a tip link connecting an ion channel between adjacent stereocilia. Displacement of the stereocilia bundle toward the tallest stereocilium opens the ion channel, allowing potassium and calcium influx that depolarizes the hair cell.
