  1. Seems #afadin (which likes #tricellular junctions) does have a role to stabilize #Ecadherin #cell-cell #adhesion and is sensitive to #actin curvature.
    This may be of interest to #vertexModel fans and beyond (we have this paper on how turnover of #Ecadherin adhesion can modulate #cellIntercalation dynamics, journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol)

  3. Replacing external domain of #Ecadherin with DNA binders and giving a kiss of death to another cell to see how strongly they bind!

    ...lovely ! 😃

    #actomyosin #contractility considered too.
