Programmable Three-Dimensional Self-Assembly
The development of modern technology has emphasized the utility of nanomaterials and efficient design of nanostructures. Self-assembly is a powerful, bottom-up approach for the fabrication of nanomaterials. The Hammer and Tongs method that we have developed signifies the advent of a holistic approach to programmable, three-dimensional selfassembly. This method integrates biochemistry and chemic...
متن کاملProgrammable Control of Nucleation for Algorithmic Self-assembly
Algorithmic self-assembly, a generalization of crystal growth processes, has been proposed as a mechanism for autonomous DNA computation and for bottom-up fabrication of complex nanostructures. A ‘program’ for growing a desired structure consists of a set of molecular ‘tiles’ designed to have specific binding interactions. A key challenge to making algorithmic self-assembly practical is designi...
متن کاملSoft Cells for Programmable Self-Assembly of Robotic Modules
Programmable self-assembly of chained robotic systems holds potential for the automatic construction of complex robots from a minimal set of building blocks. However, current robotic platforms are limited to modules of uniform rigidity, which results in a limited range of obtainable morphologies and thus functionalities of the system. To address these challenges, we investigate in this paper th...
متن کاملDirecting self-assembly of DNA nanotubes using programmable seeds.
Control over when and where nanostructures arise is essential for the self-assembly of dynamic or multicomponent devices. We design and construct a DNA origami seed for the control of DAE-E tile DNA nanotube assembly. Seeds greatly accelerate nanotube nucleation and growth because they serve as nanotube nucleation templates. Seeds also control nanotube circumference. Simulations predict nanotub...
متن کاملInstant immunity through chemically programmable vaccination and covalent self-assembly.
The ability to instantly create a state of immunity as achieved in the passive transfer of hyperimmune globulin has had a tremendous impact on public health. Unlike passive immunization, active immunization, which is the foundation of vaccinology, is an anticipatory strategy with inherent limitations. Here we show that elements of active and passive immunization can be combined to create an eff...
