Removal of the mechanoprotective influence of the cytoskeleton reveals PIEZO1 is gated by bilayer tension
PIEZO1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel, but the mechanism of force transduction is unknown. Here Cox and Bae et al.disrupt the cortical cytoskeleton in HEK293 cells to show that PIEZO1 is gated directly by membrane tension.
