Mechanotransduction by talin : a molecular dynamics study of force-induced recruitment of vinculin to a focal adhesion complex
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2007. === Includes bibliographical references (p. 112-123). === It is now well established that cells can sense mechanical force, but the mechanisms by which force is transduced into a biochemical signal remain...
