ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Mechanosensory bundles on auditory sensory cells are composed of stereocilia that grow in rows of decreasing height. This pattern depends on the specification of the eventual tallest row, then the assignment of distinct molecular identities to the shorter rows. Mechanotransduction refines and maintains row identity, thus instructing the form of the bundle.
