Building Blocks for DNA Self-Assembly
DNA complexes, like the double crossover, are used as building blocks for the assembly of higher-order structures. Currently, the number of experimentally proven reliable complexes is small. We have begun work on expanding the collection of such complexes. Here we report on our design concepts and initial experiments. In particular, we present experimental evidence of two new complexes: quadrup...
متن کاملEnzymatic ligation creates discrete multinanoparticle building blocks for self-assembly.
Enzymatic ligation of discrete nanoparticle-DNA conjugates creates nanoparticle dimer and trimer structures in which the nanoparticles are linked by single-stranded DNA, rather than by double-stranded DNA as in previous experiments. Ligation was verified by agarose gel and small-angle X-ray scattering. This capability was utilized in two ways: first, to create a new class of multiparticle build...
متن کاملMultivalent Protein Assembly Using Monovalent Self-Assembling Building Blocks
Discotic molecules, which self-assemble in water into columnar supramolecular polymers, emerged as an alternative platform for the organization of proteins. Here, a monovalent discotic decorated with one single biotin was synthesized to study the self-assembling multivalency of this system in regard to streptavidin. Next to tetravalent streptavidin, monovalent streptavidin was used to study the...
متن کاملBoronic acid building blocks: tools for self assembly.
Dynamic covalent functionality has been acknowledged as a powerful tool for the construction of organised architectures, the reversible nature thermodynamically facilitates self-control and self-correction. The use of boronic acids complexation with diols and their congeners has already shown great promise in realising and developing reversible boron-containing multicomponent systems with dynam...
متن کاملChiral Perylene Diimides: Building Blocks for Ionic Self‐Assembly
A chiral perylene diimide building block has been prepared based on an amine derivative of the amino acid L-phenylalanine. Detailed studies were carried out into the self-assembly behaviour of the material in solution and the solid state using UV/Vis, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. For the charged building block BTPPP, the molecular chirality of the side chains is transl...
