Integrin mechanosensing plays an instrumental role in cell behavior, phenotype, and fate by transmitting mechanical signals that trigger downstream molecular and cellular changes. For instance, force transfer along key amino acid residues can mediate cell adhesion. Disrupting key binding sites within α5β1 integrin's binding partner, fibronectin (FN) diminishes adhesive strength. While past studies have shown the importance of these mechanosensing residues, the molecular dynamics by which they maintain adhesion locally and throughout the cell remains less explored. Here, we present a multiscale mechanical model to investigate the mechanical coupling between integrin nanoscale dynamics and whole-cell adhesion dynamics. The model's force outputs were consistent with past atomic force microscopy and fluorescence resonance energy transfer measurements from literature. The model also confirmed past studies that implicate two key sites within FN that maintain cell adhesion: the synergy site and RGD motif. Our study contributed to our understanding of molecular mechanisms by which these sites collaborate to mediate whole-cell integrin adhesion dynamics. Specifically, we showed how FN unfolding, residue binding/unbinding, and molecular structure contribute to α5β1-FN's nonlinear force-extension behavior during stretching. These dynamics could be used to understand cell differentiation via mechanosensitive sites or limit the spread of metastatic cells through targeted protein design.
