Facile detection of mechanical forces across proteins in cells with STReTCh
Summary: Numerous proteins experience and respond to mechanical forces as an integral part of their cellular functions, but measuring these forces remains a practical challenge. Here, we present a compact, 11-kDa molecular tension sensor termed STReTCh (sensing tension by reactive tag characterizati...
