Fine-tuning of material properties by catch bonds
Acta BiomaterialiaSemiflexible polymer networks are ubiquitous in biological systems, including a scaffolding structure within cells called the actin cytoskeleton. The polymers in these networks are interconnected by transient bonds. For example, actin filaments in the cytoskeleton are physically connected via cross-linker proteins. The mechanical and kinetic properties
