Retrograde actin flow ( d ) and cell traction ( c ) data for WT (red circles), vinculin-KO (green triangles) and vinculin VD1-expressing MEF cells (blue triangles) 13 , 21 fitted to the WT-2 model, which accounts for vinculin-dependent changes in the dissociation rate and tension of molecular clutches. The fit shows that vinculin enhances the stability and mechanical load of molecular clutches.
