5 Apparent Membrane T Tension m CELL Tether Force γ T m B γ: membrane-cytoskeleton adhesion T m : in-plane tension B: membrane bending stiffness Apparent tension (T) = T m + γ

6 Tether Force vs. Length Indicates Membrane Reservoir is Present Force (pn) Tether length (µm) Plateau Exponential Frame Raucher and Sheetz, Biophys J 77:1992 (1999).

7 a) Reservoir Increases With Each Tether Pull Relative Tether Length control Pull Number b) Tether length (µm) 15 Force (pn) pull 1 pull 3 pull Frame

8 Reservoir Increase Is Sensed 8 7 Over Whole Cell 1 Tether Length ( µm) before multiple pulls after multiple pulls control Raucher & Sheetz (1999) Biophys. J. 77:1992.

9 Summary In-plane tension is small and is continuous over the whole cell surface Membrane-cytoskeleton interaction is the major component of the apparent membrane tension

10 Cell Biophysics: Analysis of Physical Basis of Cell Functions Physical and chemical analysis of cell functions is critical Tension in Membrane is Critical for Membrane Functions (Global Control) Cell Forces Generated and Sensed by Cytoskeleton

11 Functions Controlled by Plasma Membrane Tension Motility Endocytosis Rate Cell Volume regulation Bleb resistance (Membrane-cytoskeleton adhesion) Membrane resealing

12 RBL Secretion Correlates with Drop in Tether Force and Rise in Endocytosis Rate Dai et al. (1997) J. Gen. Physiol. 11:1

13 RBL Tether Force Decreases Faster Than Granule Secretion

14 Endocytosis Inhibited Dramatically in Mitosis Endocytosis (% of interphase) Relative Number of Vesicles Relative Fluorescence Intensity Interphase Prometaphase Metaphase Anaphase Cytokinesis

15 Titration of Membrane Tension with Deoxycholic Acid Tether Force (pn) interphase metaphase Endocytosis Rate (% of interphase) interphase metaphase Deoxycholic Acid Concentration (mm) Deoxycholic Acid Concentration (mm) When membrane tension in metaphase cells is adjusted to the interphase level with detergent addition, the endocytosis rate reaches the interphase level. Raucher & Sheetz (1999) J. Cell Biol. 144: 497
