Interplay Between Receptor-Ligand Binding and Lipid Domain Formation Depends on the Mobility of Ligands in Cell-Substrate Adhesion
Cell-cell adhesion and the adhesion of cells to extracellular matrix are mediated by the specific binding of receptors on the cell membrane to their cognate ligands on the opposing surface. The adhesion receptors can exhibit affinity for nanoscale lipid clusters that form in the cell membrane. Exper...
