Synergistic self-assembly of RNA and DNA molecules
DNA has recently been used as a programmable 'smart' building block for the assembly of a wide range of nanostructures. It remains difficult, however, to construct DNA assemblies that are also functional. Incorporating RNA is a promising strategy to circumvent this issue as RNA is structurally related to DNA but exhibits rich chemical, structural and functional diversities. However, only a few ...
متن کاملDNA–melamine hybrid molecules: from self-assembly to nanostructures
Single-stranded DNA-melamine hybrid molecular building blocks were synthesized using a phosphoramidation cross-coupling reaction with a zero linker approach. The self-assembly of the DNA-organic hybrid molecules was achieved by DNA hybridization. Following self-assembly, two distinct types of nanostructures in the form of linear chains and network arrays were observed. The morphology of the sel...
متن کاملMolecules within molecules: recognition through self-assembly.
Synthetic molecular receptors that completely surround their target molecules can be created through the use of noncovalent interactions. These molecular capsules selectively sequester guest molecules from the influence of bulk solvent and other molecules on the basis of size, shape, and chemical complementarity. This reversible isolation spawns unique behavior within the confines of the host; ...
متن کاملSelf and directed assembly: people and molecules
Self-assembly and directed-assembly are two very important aspects of supramolecular chemistry. As a young postgraduate student working in Canada with Tom Fyles my introduction to Supramolecular Chemistry was through the self-assembly of phospholipid membranes to form vesicles for which we were developing unimolecular and self-assembling transporter molecules. The next stage of my development a...
متن کاملA DNA-templated synthesis of encoded small molecules by DNA self-assembly.
We report a novel method for the synthesis of DNA-encoded libraries without the need for discrete DNA template. Reactant DNAs self-assemble to enable chemical reactions and photo-cleavage transfers the product to the DNA terminus, making it suitable for the subsequent affinity-based selection and hit deconvolution.
