Integrin-based focal adhesions integrate biochemical and biomechanical signals
from the extracellular matrix and the actin cytoskeleton. The combination of
three-dimensional super-resolution imaging and loss- or gain-of-function protein
mutants now links the nanoscale dynamic localization of proteins to their
activation and function within focal adhesions.
