The F-BAR protein pacsin2 inhibits asymmetric VE-cadherin internalization from tensile adherens junctions

Vascular homoeostasis, development and disease critically depend on the regulation of endothelial cell-cell junctions. Here we uncover a new role for the F-BAR protein pacsin2 in the control of VE-cadherin-based endothelial adhesion. Pacsin2 concentrates at focal adherens junctions (FAJs) that are e...
