Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have shown that Cdk5 promotes lens epithelial cell adhesion. Here we use a cell spreading assay to investigate the mechanism of this effect. As cells spread, forming matrix adhesions and stress fibers, Cdk5(Y15) phosphorylation and Cdk5 kinase activity increased. Cdk5(Y15) phosph...
