Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Fimbrin is recruited to epithelial tricellular junctions in response to force • Fimbrin remodels actin and enhances actomyosin contractility under tension • Fimbrin directs the localization of multiple proteins that reinforce cell adhesion • Plastin3 and Afadin localize to tricellular junctions under force in mouse epithelia
