Glycan-mediated binding to collagen by a C-type lectin-like domain of the endocytic receptor Endo180 / uPARAP.

The primary role of the multidomain endocytic receptor designated Endo180 or uPARAP (urokinase-plasminogen activator receptor associated protein) is to facilitate internalization of collagen for lysosomal degradation during matrix remodeling in tissues. However, Endo180 interacts both with collagen and sugars and the r...

Mechanical opening of the αE-catenin M-region gates afadin condensation in cardiomyocytes

In mechanically active tissues, cell-cell adhesions must withstand high and dynamic loads to maintain tissue integrity. The ability to detect and withstand load centers on the mechanosensitive adherens junction (AJ), which couples the actin networks of adjacent cells. The mechanosensor αE-catenin responds to force by o...
