We present a physical model that describes the active localization of actin-regulating proteins inside stereocilia during steady-state conditions. The mechanism of localization is through the interplay of free diffusion and directed motion, which is driven by coupling to the treadmilling actin filaments and to myosin motors that move along the acti...
