“Optimality of motor and clutch mechanical properties in a generalized model for cell traction forces”
2023-02-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The mechanical properties of the extracellular environment influence cell behavior, such as cell morphogenesis, cell migration and cell fate. During the cell migration cycle, cells extend plasma membrane protrusions via actin polymerization, actin filaments move retrogradely via myosin motors and actin polymerization, and the formation of adhesion complexes commonly called clutches mediate the p...
