Results directly implicate the heparin-binding sequence of the first type III repeat of fibrillar fibronectin (FNIII1) in realignment of stress fibers in HUVECs and, importantly, show that the matricryptic heparin-binding RWRPK sequence located in FNIII1 is required for the response. PMID: 27521419

46. Findings suggest that the up-regulated level of EDA+ FN is associated with liver damage in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. PMID: 28397039
47. In vitro binding studies support a previously unreported two-state "catch-clamp" mechanism of Fn binding by CshA, in which the disordered N-terminal domain of CshA acts to "catch" Fn, via formation of a rapidly assembled but also readily dissociable pre-complex, enabling its neighboring ligand binding domain to tightly clamp the two polypeptides together. PMID: 27920201
