When suspended fibroblasts encounter a substratum such as fibronectin, they spread and then generate stable sites of cell–substratum contact, or focal adhesions (FAs). The FA protein talin links actin ...
Researchers at Tampere University, Finland, have published new results in collaboration with an international research network that help to understand the biological phenomena mediated by cell ...
In multicellular organisms, cell migration and mechanosensing are essential for cellular development and maintenance. These processes rely on talin, the key focal adhesion—or FA—protein, central in ...
New results reveal a new mode of force transmission in which dynamic molecular stretching bridges the extracellular matrix and flowing F-actin moving at different speeds. This discovery underscores ...
JUPITER, FL - Oct. 10, 2018 - Scripps Research scientists have uncovered the workings of a critical process in cell survival. Their study, published recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy ...
Honeywell Aerospace has unveiled the TALIN 6000, a next-generation navigation sensor that provides enhanced situational awareness for combat vehicles, with or without the use of GPS. The TALIN 6000 is ...
