Tyrosine dephosphorylated cortactin downregulates contractility at the epithelial zonula adherens through SRGAP1

Epithelial cell-cell adhesions are contractile junctions, but whether contractility can be down-regulated is not known. Here the authors report how tyrosine dephosphorylation of the cytoskeletal scaffold, cortactin, recruits the RhoA antagonist SRGAP1 to relax adherens junctions in response to HGF.
