Frustrated endocytosis controls contractility-independent mechanotransduction at clathrin-coated structures

Cells sense mechanical properties of their environment using various cellular structures including focal adhesions. Here, the authors identify flat clathrin-coated structures (CCSs) as mechanosensitive signaling platforms that form independently of contractility and in response to substrate rigidity...
