Unique tool helps to study how the mechanical forces behind protein folding affect cancer spread

Talin is a protein that controls cellular attachment and movement, but its malfunctioning also allows cancer cells to spread. DCL1 is a tumor-suppressing protein. But scientists don't fully understand how either protein works – or what happens when they don't work the way they should.
