Integrins in disguise - mechanosensors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae as functional integrin analogues
FIGURE 3: Structures and proposed functional domains of yeast mechanosensors. Protein domains are indicated in the legend box. PM, plasma membrane. Numbers indicate residues in the respective proteins counting from the N-termini. Numbers below the protein names indicate the estimated length of the extracellular sensor region. mxe, maximal possible extension. cle, computed live-cell extension.
