DNA Self-Assembly: From Chirality to Evolution
Transient or long-term DNA self-assembly participates in essential genetic functions. The present review focuses on tight DNA-DNA interactions that have recently been found to play important roles in both controlling DNA higher-order structures and their topology. Due to their chirality, double helices are tightly packed into stable right-handed crossovers. Simple packing rules that are imposed...
متن کاملDNA–melamine hybrid molecules: from self-assembly to nanostructures
Single-stranded DNA-melamine hybrid molecular building blocks were synthesized using a phosphoramidation cross-coupling reaction with a zero linker approach. The self-assembly of the DNA-organic hybrid molecules was achieved by DNA hybridization. Following self-assembly, two distinct types of nanostructures in the form of linear chains and network arrays were observed. The morphology of the sel...
متن کاملAlgorithmic DNA Self-assembly
Self-assembly is a process by which simple objects autonomously assemble into complexes. This phenomenon is common in nature but is not yet well understood from mathematical and programming perspectives. It is believed that self-assembly technology will ultimately permit the precise fabrication of complex nanostructures. There are many kinds of self-assembly and DNA self-assembly is of particul...
متن کاملSwitching of inherent chirality driven by self-assembly.
Dynamic chirality of iminoresorcin[4]arenes that originates from regioselective and diastereoselective keto-enol tautomerisation was switched by non-covalent interactions with achiral molecules, as demonstrated by experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra supported by TD DFT calculations.
متن کاملDNA Computing by Self-Assembly
Information and algorithms appear to be central to biological organization and processes, from the storage and reproduction of genetic information to the control of developmental processes to the sophisticated computations performed by the nervous system. Much as human technology uses electronic microprocessors to control electro-mechanical devices, biological organisms use biochemical circuits...
