A molecular basis for water motion detection by the mechanosensory lateral line of zebrafish

 In fish, water motion is detected by mechanosensitive hair cells located in the lateral line. Here the authors show that the molecular machinery for mechanotransduction, including transmembrane channel-like 2b (Tmc2b), varies depending on both hair cell location and hair bundle orientation.
