Cellosaurus MDCK Actinin-M-cpstFRET (CVCL_ZV93)

[Text version]
Cell line name MDCK Actinin-M-cpstFRET
Synonyms MDCK M-cpstFRET
Accession CVCL_ZV93
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: MDCK Actinin-M-cpstFRET (RRID:CVCL_ZV93)
Comments Characteristics: Used to report forces in actinin in living cells. Has one actinin molecule with the cpstFRET sensor incorporated between spectrin repeat domains 3 and 4 toward the middle of actinin. The cpstFRET (circularly permuted stretch sensitive FRET) sensor consists of a pair of tandemly connected circularly permutated CFP/YFPs (cpCerulean/cpVenus). Mechanical loading twists the dipole orientation from near parallel to diagonal, decreasing FRET efficiency.
