Molecular basis of proteolytic cleavage regulation by the extracellular matrix receptor dystroglycan

M. J. Anderson, A. N. Hayward, A. T. Smiley, K. Shi, M. R. Pawlak, E. J. Aird, E. Grant, L. Greenberg, H. Aihara, C. Ulens, R. L. Evans, W. R. Gordon

This study identifies a unique mechanism by which dystroglycan is cleaved by MMPs, showing that structural changes disrupt DGC integrity and contribute to disease.

An enhanced molecular tension sensor based on bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET)

W. R. Gordon, E. J. Aird, K. J. Tompkins

This paper develops a BRET-based molecular tension sensor with improved spectral properties and dynamic range compared to FRET-based sensors, demonstrating its application in studying tension gradients in focal adhesions.
