Optoregulated force application to cellular receptors using molecular motors

Molecular scale force application in physiological environments is important for studying mechanotransduction. Here, the authors use a molecular machine to apply forces at cell-matrix and cell-cell junctions using light to trigger twisting actuation which then pulls on cell membrane receptors.
