DNA origami: synthesis and self-assembly.
DNA origami is an emerging technology for designing defined two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) DNA nanostructures. Here, we report an introductory practical guide with step-by-step experimental details for the design and synthesis of origami structures, and their size expansion in 1D and 2D space by means of self-assembly.
متن کاملThiosquaraine rotaxanes: synthesis, dynamic structure, and oxygen photosensitization.
Thiosquaraine dyes have sulfur atoms instead of oxygens on the central squaraine core, and they are powerful singlet oxygen photosensitizers. Stability studies show that they are susceptible to attack by nucleophiles. This problem was circumvented by preparing a mechanically interlocked thiosquaraine rotaxane. NMR studies of the rotaxane indicate an unusual dynamic molecular structure due to a ...
متن کاملSynthesis, structure, and dynamic properties of hybrid organic-inorganic rotaxanes.
The synthesis and characterization of a series of hybrid organic-inorganic [2]rotaxanes is described. The ring components are heterometallic octa- ([Cr(7)MF(8)(O(2)C(t)Bu)(16)]; M = Co, Ni, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, and Cd) nuclear cages in which the metal centers are bridged by fluoride and pivalate ((t)BuCO(2)(-)) anions; the thread components feature dialkylammonium units that template the formation o...
متن کاملStructure and conformational dynamics of scaffolded DNA origami nanoparticles
Synthetic DNA is a highly programmable nanoscale material that can be designed to self-assemble into 3D structures that are fully determined by underlying Watson-Crick base pairing. The double crossover (DX) design motif has demonstrated versatility in synthesizing arbitrary DNA nanoparticles on the 5-100 nm scale for diverse applications in biotechnology. Prior computational investigations of ...
متن کاملControlled reduction of photobleaching in DNA origami-gold nanoparticle hybrids.
The amount of information obtainable from a fluorescence-based measurement is limited by photobleaching: Irreversible photochemical reactions either render the molecules nonfluorescent or shift their absorption and/or emission spectra outside the working range. Photobleaching is evidenced as a decrease of fluorescence intensity with time, or in the case of single molecule measurements, as an ab...
