Binding of Notch to Delta 

is followed by endocytosis of Delta by the signaling cell

The force accompanying the movement of Delta into the signaling cell stretches the Notch protein on the responding cell and allowing access by ADAM 10, which cleaves the Notch extracellular domain

Cleavage by the γ-secretase complex releases the Notch cytosolic segment, which translocates to the nucleus, interacts with a single DNA-binding transcription factor, CSL.
