AFM/TIRF force clamp measurements of neurosecretory vesicle tethers reveal characteristic unfolding steps.
Although several proteins have been implicated in secretory vesicle tethering, the identity and mechanical properties of the components forming the physical vesicle-plasma membrane link remain unknown. Here we present the first experimental measurements of nanomechanical properties of secretory vesi...
