Calpain-catalyzed talin cleavage in platelets promotes fibrin clot contraction. Calpain cleaves talin in proximity to vinculin binding sites, likely initiating vinculin binding to talin to promote clot contraction. Blood clot contraction is driven by traction forces generated by the platelet cytoskeleton that are transmitted to fibrin fibers via the integrin αIIbβ3. Here we show that clot contraction is impaired by inhibitors of the platelet cytosolic protease calpain. We used subtiligase-mediated labeling of amino termini and mass spectrometry to identify proteolytically cleaved platelet proteins involved in clot contraction. Of 32 calpain-cleaved proteins after TRAP stimulation, 14 were cytoskeletal, most prominently talin and vinculin. A complex of talin and vinculin constitutes a mechanosensitive clutch connecting integrins bound to the extracellular matrix with the actin cytoskeleton. Accordingly, we focused on talin and vinculin. Talin is composed of an N-terminal head domain and a C-terminal rod domain organized into a series of 4- and 5-helix bundles. The bundles contain 11 vinculin binding sites (VBSs), each of which is an α-helix packed into a bundle interior and requiring structural rearrangement to initiate vinculin binding. We detected 8 calpain-mediated cleavages in talin, 2 previously identified in unstructured regions and 6 in α-helical regions in proximity to a VBS. There is evidence in vitro that applying mechanical force across talin enables vinculin binding to the talin rod. However, we found that inhibiting platelet cytoskeletal contraction had no effect on talin cleavage, indicating that talin cleavage by calpain in platelets does not require cytoskeleton-generated tensile force. Therefore, it is likely that calpain acts in the later stages of clot retraction through focal adhesion disassembly.
