Directing self-assembly of DNA nanotubes using programmable seeds.
Control over when and where nanostructures arise is essential for the self-assembly of dynamic or multicomponent devices. We design and construct a DNA origami seed for the control of DAE-E tile DNA nanotube assembly. Seeds greatly accelerate nanotube nucleation and growth because they serve as nanotube nucleation templates. Seeds also control nanotube circumference. Simulations predict nanotub...
متن کاملDNA-templated self-assembly of protein and nanoparticle linear arrays.
Self-assembling DNA tiling lattices represent a versatile system for nanoscale construction. Self-assembled DNA arrays provide an excellent template for spatially positioning other molecules with increased relative precision and programmability. Here we report an experiment using a linear array of DNA triple crossover tiles to controllably template the self-assembly of single-layer or double-la...
متن کاملTheoretical description of a DNA-linked nanoparticle self-assembly.
Nanoparticles tethered with DNA strands are promising building blocks for bottom-up nanotechnology, and a theoretical understanding is important for future development. Here we build on approaches developed in polymer physics to provide theoretical descriptions for the equilibrium clustering and dynamics, as well as the self-assembly kinetics of DNA-linked nanoparticles. Striking agreement is o...
متن کاملOriented assembly of polyhedral plasmonic nanoparticle clusters.
Shaped colloids can be used as nanoscale building blocks for the construction of composite, functional materials that are completely assembled from the bottom up. Assemblies of noble metal nanostructures have unique optical properties that depend on key structural features requiring precise control of both position and connectivity spanning nanometer to micrometer length scales. Identifying and...
متن کاملProgrammable Three-Dimensional Self-Assembly
The development of modern technology has emphasized the utility of nanomaterials and efficient design of nanostructures. Self-assembly is a powerful, bottom-up approach for the fabrication of nanomaterials. The Hammer and Tongs method that we have developed signifies the advent of a holistic approach to programmable, three-dimensional selfassembly. This method integrates biochemistry and chemic...
