Skeletal Dysplasia Mutations Effect on Human Filamins’ Structure and Mechanosensing

Abstract Cells’ ability to sense mechanical cues in their environment is crucial for fundamental cellular processes, leading defects in mechanosensing to be linked to many diseases. The actin cross-linking protein Filamin has an important role in the conversion of mechanical forces into biochemical...
