📢Just out in Advanced Science! 🎉 Congratulations to Aishu on the exciting review on Mitochondrial Adaptation to Mechanical Stress in Cardiac Ageing and Disease! doi.org/10.1002/advs...

Vinculin is a simple adapter protein right? Wrong! That’s been the prevailing view for the 46 years since it was discovered. Here we provide a new paradigm and show that vinculin is a complex mechanosensor itself, containing 6 binary switch domains. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

🎉It's finally out! Mechanosensitive biochemical imprinting of the talin interaction with DLC1 regulates RhoA activity and cardiomyocyte remodeling | Science Advances www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... - Amazing work Emilie, Ioannis and all co-authors and collaborators!

Excited to share our new preprint in @biorxiv-neursci.bsky.social "Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) binds to talin and is anchored at the postsynaptic density via direct interaction with PDZ domains" Instead of a 🧵 the paper is summarised in this video. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our new preprint is out! Led by @stefanosala89.bsky.social sky.social we investigate the difference between molecular tension sensing and global tension on the focal adhesion. Follow along for a thread of our findings: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
