Geometrically defined environments direct cell division rate and subcellular YAP localization in single mouse embryonic stem cells

Abstract Mechanotransduction via yes-associated protein (YAP) is a central mechanism for decision-making in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Nuclear localization of YAP is tightly connected to pluripotency and increases the cell division rate (CDR). How the geometry of the extracellular environme...
