Focal Adhesion
In the previous chapter, we learned about various biomaterial surfaces used for tissue engineering applications. Successful biomaterial surfaces... -
Polarized focal adhesion kinase activity within a focal adhesion during cell migration
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) relays integrin signaling from outside to inside cells and contributes to cell adhesion and motility. However, the...

Membrane-induced 2D phase separation of the focal adhesion protein talin
Focal adhesions form liquid-like assemblies around activated integrin receptors at the plasma membrane. How they achieve their flexible properties is...
-
Hax1 regulate focal adhesion dynamics through IQGAP1
Cell migration is a highly orchestrated process requiring the coordination between the cytoskeleton, cell membrane and extracellular matrix...

Electronic Structure Analysis of Dasatinib Inhibition of Focal Adhesion Kinase
A theoretical analysis was conducted using the DFT method with the ωB97XD functional to determine the binding energies of established inhibitors and... -
Focal adhesion kinase: from biological functions to therapeutic strategies
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a nonreceptor cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase, is a vital participant in primary cellular functions, such as proliferation,...
