Abstract
The cytoskeletal protein talin plays a key role in coupling the integrin family of cell adhesion molecules to the actin cytoskeleton. In this paper I present a brief review on talin and summarize our recent studies, in which we have taken both genetic and structural approaches to further elucidate the function of the protein.Mesh:
