abstract：:Cell mechanics plays a role in stem cell reprogramming and differentiation. To understand this process better, we created a genetically encoded optical probe, named actin-cpstFRET-actin (AcpA), to report forces in actin in living cells in real time. We showed that stemness was associated with increased force in actin....
