Mechanical properties of crosslinks controls failure mechanism of hierarchical intermediate filament networks
Intermediate filaments are one of the key components of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, and their mechanical properties are found to be equally important for physiological function and disease. While the mechanical properties of single full length filaments have been studied, how the mechanica...
