Talin Contains A C-Terminal Calpain2 Cleavage Site Important In Focal Adhesion Dynamics
Talin is a large (∼2540 residues) dimeric adaptor protein that associates with the integrin family of cell adhesion molecules in cell-extracellular matrix junctions (focal adhesions; FAs), where it both activates integrins and couples them to the actin cytoskeleton. Calpain2-mediated cleavage of tal...
