The ability of cells to sense and respond to mechanical force underlies diverse processes such as touch and hearing in animals, gravitropism in plants, and bacterial osmoregulation1, 2. In bacteria, mechanosensation is mediated by the mechanosensitive channels of large (MscL), small (MscS), potassiu...
