Stiffening and unfolding of a vimentin dimer under tension. A: in silico force–strain relations for tensile deformation of the vimentin dimer at two pulling speeds. B: snapshots from molecular dynamics analysis of a region of vimentin that unfolds in the three ranges of strain shown in A. Adapted from [5].
