Rac1 and Nectin3 are essential for PCP-directed axon guidance in the peripheral auditory system Our sense of hearing is critically dependent on the spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) that connect the sound receptors in the organ of Corti (OC) to the cochlear nuclei of the hindbrain. Type I SGNs inne...
