Figure 5

Space-clamp error. The single stereocilium capacitance difference (A) with respect to the space-clamped value is displayed for the MET open (GT = 300 pS) and the tip short-circuited to the extracellular space (GT = ∞). The percentage capacitance error (B), as expected, increases with length until the length-dependent potential drop is equal to the somatic holding potential (ΔVL = VSoma) and then plateaus at 67% (2/3).
