Forcing the reversibility of a mechanochemical reaction

Mechanical force can facilitate thermodynamically unfavourable reactions. Here, the authors found that a stretching force can promote the SN2 cleavage of a protein disulfide bond by weak nucleophilic thiols, and that removing this force reverses the reaction yielding the original disulfide bond.
