Mechanical forces are central to developmental, physiological and pathological processes. However, limited understanding of force transmission within sub-cellular structures is a major obstacle to unravelling molecular mechanisms. Here we describe the development of a calibrated biosensor that measures forces across specific proteins in cells with piconewton (pN) sensitivity, as demonstrated by single molecule fluorescence force spectroscopy. The method is applied to vinculin, a protein that connects integrins to actin filaments and whose recruitment to focal adhesions (FAs) is force-dependent. We show that tension across vinculin in stable FAs is approximately 2.5 pN and that vinculin recruitment to FAs and force transmission across vinculin are regulated separately. Highest tension across vinculin is associated with adhesion assembly and enlargement. Conversely, vinculin is under low force in disassembling or sliding FAs at the trailing edge of migrating cells. Furthermore, vinculin is required for stabilizing adhesions under force. Together, these data reveal that FA stabilization under force requires both vinculin recruitment and force transmission, and that, surprisingly, these processes can be controlled independently.

Force-induced changes in protein structure and function mediate cellular responses to mechanical stresses. Existing methods to study protein conformation under mechanical force are incompatible with biochemical and structural analysis. Taking advantage of DNA nanotechnology, including the well-defined geometry of DNA origami and programmable mechanics of DNA hairpins, we built a nanodevice to apply controlled forces to proteins.

The tumor microenvironment (TME) comprises diverse cell types within an altered extracellular matrix (ECM) and plays a pivotal role in metastasis through intricate cell-cell and cell-ECM interactions. Fibroblasts, as key constituents of the TME, contribute significantly to cancer metastasis through their involvement in matrix deposition and remodeling mechanisms, modulated by their quiescent or activated states. Despite their recognized importance, the precise role of fibroblasts in cancer cell invasion remains incompletely understood.

Cellular mechanotransduction, a process central to cell biology, embryogenesis, adult physiology, and multiple diseases, is thought to be mediated by force-driven changes in protein conformation that control protein function. However, methods to study proteins under defined mechanical loads on a biochemical scale are lacking. We report the development of a DNA-based device in which the transition between single- and double-stranded DNA applies tension to an attached protein.

Apical cell-cell junctions, including adherens junctions and tight junctions, adhere epithelial cells to one another and regulate selective permeability at both bicellular junctions and tricellular junctions (TCJs). Although several specialized proteins are known to localize at TCJs, it remains unclear how actomyosin-mediated tension transmission at TCJs contributes to the maintenance of junction integrity and barrier function at these sites. Here, utilizing the embryonic epithelium of gastrula-stage Xenopus laevis embryos, we define a mechanism by which the mechanosensitive protein Vinculin helps anchor the actomyosin network at TCJs, thus maintaining TCJ integrity and barrier function.

Confocal frequency-domain fluorescence lifetime and Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) microscopy of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells expressing the vinculin tension sensor (VinTS) is used to compare vinculin tension in three-dimensional (3D) multicellular aggregates and 2D cellular monolayers. In both 2D and 3D cultures, the FRET efficiency of VinTS is 5-6% lower than that of VinTL (p < 0.05), a tail-less control which cannot bind actin or paxillin.
