Stress relaxation through crosslink unbinding in cytoskeletal networks
The mechanical properties of cells are dominated by the cytoskeleton, an interconnected network of long elastic filaments. The connections between the filaments are provided by crosslinking proteins, which constitute, next to the filaments, the second important mechanical element of the network. An...
