Programmable DNA Hydrogels Assembled from Multidomain DNA Strands.
Hydrogels are important in biological and medical applications, such as drug delivery and tissue engineering. DNA hydrogels have attracted significant attention due to the programmability and biocompatibility of the material. We developed a series of low-cost one-strand DNA hydrogels self-assembled from single-stranded DNA monomers containing multiple palindromic domains. This new hydrogel desi...
متن کاملDesign and characterization of programmable DNA nanotubes.
DNA self-assembly provides a programmable bottom-up approach for the synthesis of complex structures from nanoscale components. Although nanotubes are a fundamental form encountered in tile-based DNA self-assembly, the factors governing tube structure remain poorly understood. Here we report and characterize a new type of nanotube made from DNA double-crossover molecules (DAE-E tiles). Unmodifi...
متن کاملModular Hydrogels for Drug Delivery
The development of novel drug delivery systems is an essential step toward controlled site-specific administration of therapeutics within the body. It is desirable for delivery vehicles to be introduced into the body through minimally invasive means and, these vehicles should be capable of releasing drug to their intended location at a controlled rate. Furthermore, it is desirable to develop dr...
متن کاملDesign and Characterization of Programmable DNA Nanotubes Supporting Information
1 Methods Design, data-processing and modelling: DNA sequences were designed using our own algorithms based on sequence symmetry minimization implemented in Matlab and C (available at http://www.dna.caltech.edu/DNAdesign/). Curve fits for persistence length data and models for lattice strain energies were calculated in Matlab. Molecular models were constructed and visualized using a combination...
متن کاملAutomated design of programmable enzyme-driven DNA circuits.
Molecular programming allows for the bottom-up engineering of biochemical reaction networks in a controlled in vitro setting. These engineered biochemical reaction networks yield important insight in the design principles of biological systems and can potentially enrich molecular diagnostic systems. The DNA polymerase-nickase-exonuclease (PEN) toolbox has recently been used to program oscillato...
