Abstract
⺠We hypothesize that multiple zyxin LIM domains may enhance force sensitivity. ⺠We analyze the accumulation of tandem dimer or trimer LIM domain and traction force. ⺠Tandem LIM variants reduces VASP accumulation at focal adhesions. ⺠Force sensitivities are similar among single and tandem LIM variants. ⺠Single LIM domain of zyxin has the optimal force sensitivity.
