Fluorescent Genetically Encoded Mechanosensors (fGEMs) for Measuring Cellular Tension and Screening Mechanotherapeutics
Brief Description
This innovation introduces a genetically encoded fluorescent mechanosensor (fGEM) that reports changes in mechanical tension within living cells as changes in light intensity. By enabling direct visualization of cellular tension dynamics, this technology provides a powerful new approach for studying mechanobiology and for high-throughput...
