Force-free activation of Notch with DNA origami.

Abstract

The Notch signaling pathway is a highly conserved, fundamental process to embryogenesis and neurogenesis. While force-induced conformational change is known to activate Notch receptors, Smyrlaki et al. recently used DNA origami to reveal an additional, force-independent mode of Notch activation via soluble presentation of spatially controlled ligand nanopatterns.
