Structural DNA Nanotechnology: From Design to Applications
The exploitation of DNA for the production of nanoscale architectures presents a young yet paradigm breaking approach, which addresses many of the barriers to the self-assembly of small molecules into highly-ordered nanostructures via construct addressability. There are two major methods to construct DNA nanostructures, and in the current review we will discuss the principles and some examples ...
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 کاملChallenges and opportunities for structural DNA nanotechnology.
DNA molecules have been used to build a variety of nanoscale structures and devices over the past 30 years, and potential applications have begun to emerge. But the development of more advanced structures and applications will require a number of issues to be addressed, the most significant of which are the high cost of DNA and the high error rate of self-assembly. Here we examine the technical...
متن کاملFrom DNA nanotechnology to synthetic biology.
Attempts to construct artificial systems from biological molecules such as DNA and RNA by self-assembly are compatible with the recent development of synthetic biology. Genetic mechanisms can be used to produce or control artificial structures made from DNA and RNA, and these structures can in turn be used as artificial gene regulatory elements, in vitro as well as in vivo. Artificial biochemic...
متن کاملDna Nanotechnology and Its Biological Applications
This Chapter overviews the emerging research area of DNA nanostructures and biomolecular devices. We discuss work involving the use of synthetic DNA to self-assemble DNA nanostructure devices. Recently, there have been a series of quite astonishing experimental results which have taken the technology from a state of intriguing possibilities into demonstrated capabilities of quickly increasing s...
