A novel FRET-force biosensor for nucleoporin gp210 reveals that the nuclear pore complex experiences mechanical tension

The paper develops a FRET-force biosensor to measure mechanical tension on the nuclear pore complex and finds that nuclear strain, not cytoskeletal forces, primarily drives these forces.
