Resolving Heterogeneous Mechanical Domains via Physics-Aware Deep Clustering of Single-Molecule Force Spectroscopy Data

Many biological processes rely on mechanical forces, with protein molecules acting as key mediators. Understanding how proteins respond to mechanical stress is essential for conditions including cardiomyopathy and muscular dystrophy. Natural proteins such as dystrophin and utrophin are composed of heterogeneous folding...
