Cleavage of talin by calpain promotes platelet-mediated fibrin clot contraction

Blood clot contraction is driven by traction forces generated by the platelet cytoskeleton that are transmitted to fibrin fibers via the integrin αIIbβ3. Here we show that clot contraction is impaired by inhibitors of the platelet cytosolic protease calpain. We used subtiligase-mediated labeling of...
