Cell traction measured on MEF WT and MEF Talin 1 KO, Talin 2 shRNA cells plated on substrates coated with increasing concentrations of fibronectin 13. The experimental data were fitted to the talin WT model (dotted curves) and the linear WT and KD models (solid curves) by varying the rate of molecular-clutch formation (k{on}0), the characteristic size of adhesion sites of molecular clutches (r) and the density of myosin II motors (σm). Other model parameters were held fixed (Supplementary Table 1).
