Extended Data Fig. 2. MDCK WT behaves as an extensile system and MDCK E-cadherin KO behave as a contractile system.

Extended Data Fig. 2

a, b) Orientation field (left) and velocity vectors (right) around a single comet shaped (+1/2) defect (a) and trefoil (-1/2) defect obtained from WT (top) and E-cadherin KO (bottom) monolayers. c, d) Trajectory of several comet (+1/2) (left) and trefoil (-1/2) (right) shaped defects obtained from MDCK WT (c) and MDCK E-cadherin KO (d) monolayers.
