Dynamics of ligand-induced, Rac1-dependent anchoring of cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton
Cadherin receptors are key morphoregulatory molecules during development. To dissect their mode of action, we developed an approach based on the use of myogenic C2 cells and beads coated with an Ncad-Fc ligand, allowing us to mimic cadherin-mediated adhesion. We used optical tweezers and video micro...
