Bidirectional allostery mechanism of catch-bond effect in cell adhesion

Xingyue Guan, Yunqiang Bian, Yi Cao +2

Catch-bonds, whereby noncovalent ligand-receptor interactions are counterintuitively reinforced by tensile forces, play a major role in cell adhesion under mechanical stress. A bas…

Fluorination Increases Hydrophobicity at the Macroscopic Level but not at the Microscopic Level

Weishuai Di, Xin Wang, Yanyan Zhou +3

Hydrophobic interactions have been studied in detail in the past based on hydrophobic polymers, such as polystyrene (PS). Because fluorinated materials have relatively low surface…
