Myosin 7a is required for maintaining the transducing stereocilia and for force transmission to the MET channel during cochlear hair cell development

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 5, Page 2152-2175, 1 March 2026.
Abstract figure legend Developmental changes in the hair‐bundle structure of outer hair cells (OHCs) and inner hair cells (IHCs) were examined in control and shaker‐1 mutant (Myo7aSh1/Sh1) mice, which carry a spontaneous missense mutation in the Myo7a gene that produces a non‐functional MYO7A protein.
