Acetylated tubulin is essential for touch sensation in mice

Acetylated tubulin is essential for touch sensation in mice

At its most fundamental level, touch sensation requires the translation of mechanical energy into mechanosensitive ion channel opening, thereby generating electro-chemical signals. Our understanding of this process, especially how the cytoskeleton influences it, remains unknown. Here we demonstrate...
