FORCE SENSOR CLEAVAGE DOMAIN CONTAINING CHIMERIC POLYPEPTIDES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

Provided are chimeric polypeptides which modulate various cellular processes following cleavage of a force sensor cleavage domain, including non-Notch force sensor cleavage domains, induced upon binding of a specific binding member of the chimeric polypeptide with its binding partner. Methods of usi...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Provided are chimeric polypeptides which modulate various cellular processes following cleavage of a force sensor cleavage domain, including non-Notch force sensor cleavage domains, induced upon binding of a specific binding member of the chimeric polypeptide with its binding partner. Methods of using force sensor cleavage domain-containing chimeric polypeptides to modulate cellular functions, including e.g., modulation (including induction or repression) of gene expression, are also provided. Nucleic acids encoding the subject chimeric polypeptides and associated expression cassettes and vectors as well as cells that contain such nucleic acids and/or expression cassettes and vectors are provided. Also provided, are methods of monitoring cell-cell signaling and method of treating a subject using the described components, as well as kits for practicing the subject methods.
