Electromotility can be disassociated from gating charge movement in outer hair cells of conditional alpha2 spectrin knockout mice.

Jun-Ping Bai, Micheal C. Stankewich, Jie Yang, Winston J. T. Tan, Zhongyuan Zuo, Qiang Song, Saaim Khan, Lula Wang, Jon S. Morrow, Joseph Santos‐Sacchi, Dhasakumar S. Navaratnam

This study shows that knocking out alpha2 spectrin in postnatal outer hair cells leads to a dissociation of prestin's gating charge movement from electromotility and structural changes in the SSC and plasma membrane-SSC space.

Single particle cryo-EM structure of the outer hair cell motor protein prestin

Carmen Butan, Qiang Song, Jun-Ping Bai, Winston J. T. Tan, Dhasakumar S. Navaratnam, Joseph Santos‐Sacchi

This paper presents the single particle cryo-EM structure of prestin from gerbil at 4.0 Å resolution, revealing its dimeric architecture and structural features that challenge the extrinsic voltage sensor hypothesis.
