1.A.17.4.1 TMC2, like TMC1, plays a role in hearing and gravity detection (Kawashima et al., 2011). Required for normal function of cochlear hair cells, possibly as a Ca2+ channel (Kim and Fettiplace 2013). TMC1 and TMC2 are both components of hair cell transduction channels and
contribute to permeation properties (Pan et al. 2013; Kawashima et al. 2014). Both TMC1 and 2 interact with Protocadherin 15 (Maeda et al. 2014). TMC1 and TMC2 are components of the stereocilia mechanoelectrical transduction channel complex (Kurima et al. 2015). While TMC2 is required for mechanotransduction in mature vestibular hair cells, its expression in the immature cochlea may be an evolutionary remnant (Corns et al. 2017). Transgenic Tmc2 expression preserves inner ear hair cells and vestibular function in mice lacking Tmc1 (Asai et al. 2018). Gentamicin and other antibiotics enters neonatal mouse hair cells predominantly through sensorymMechanoelectrical transduction channels, Tmc1 and Tmc2 (Makabe et al. 2020).
