DyNAMiC Workbench: an integrated development environment for dynamic DNA nanotechnology
Dynamic DNA nanotechnology provides a promising avenue for implementing sophisticated assembly processes, mechanical behaviours, sensing and computation at the nanoscale. However, design of these systems is complex and error-prone, because the need to control the kinetic pathway of a system greatly increases the number of design constraints and possible failure modes for the system. Previous to...
متن کاملDynamic DNA nanotechnology using strand-displacement reactions.
The specificity and predictability of Watson-Crick base pairing make DNA a powerful and versatile material for engineering at the nanoscale. This has enabled the construction of a diverse and rapidly growing set of DNA nanostructures and nanodevices through the programmed hybridization of complementary strands. Although it had initially focused on the self-assembly of static structures, DNA nan...
متن کاملDNA gridiron nanostructures based on four-arm junctions.
Engineering wireframe architectures and scaffolds of increasing complexity is one of the important challenges in nanotechnology. We present a design strategy to create gridiron-like DNA structures. A series of four-arm junctions are used as vertices within a network of double-helical DNA fragments. Deliberate distortion of the junctions from their most relaxed conformations ensures that a scaff...
متن کاملDNA nanotechnology for nanophotonic applications.
DNA nanotechnology has touched the epitome of miniaturization by integrating various nanometer size particles with nanometer precision. This enticing bottom-up approach has employed small DNA tiles, large multi-dimensional polymeric structures or more recently DNA origami to organize nanoparticles of different inorganic materials, small organic molecules or macro-biomolecules like proteins, and...
متن کاملDNA nanotechnology gets real
In the beginning there was the cube. Nadrian Seeman and coworkers at New York University set out in the early 1990s to construct a nanometre scale cube from DNA. The idea was to use the highly sophisticated methods of molecular biology to build DNA into something new and entirely artificial. Linking DNA fragments together by means of hybridisation of overlapping ends followed by ligation, Seema...
