Lack of functional otoferlin or its C2 domain interaction prevents proper vesicle docking, leading to profound deafness. Summary Table: Otoferlin C2 Interactions Function/Location C2B-C2G Main interface for membrane binding C2D Crucial Ca 2+raised to the 2 plus power binding site; mutations affect sound encoding C2F-C2G Rearrange upon membrane binding to close structure Target Membrane Membrane where vesicles are docked
This molecular mechanism allows the ear to convert sound into neural signals at incredibly high speeds.
Upon binding, a "closed" conformation is adopted, where C-terminal domains (C2F, C2G) rearrange. 3. Key Findings in Synaptic Transmission Ca 2+raised to the 2 plus power
