DNA-templated formation of fluorescent self-assembly of ethynyl pyrenes.

چکیده
DNA single strands can be applied as templates for the self-assembly of Py≡dU chromophores in H2O with optical properties that are very similar to Py≡dU stacks that are covalently attached to DNA. The chirality, however, of the non-covalent stacks is opposite to that of the covalent stacks.

Diamondoids and DNA Nanotechnologies
Diamondoids are cage-like saturated hydrocarbons consisting of fused cyclohexane rings. The Diamondoids family of compounds is one of the best candidates for molecular building blocks (MBBs) in nanotechnology to construct organic nanostructures compared to other MBBs known so far. The challenge is to find a route for self-assembly of these cage hydrocarbons and their applications in the bottom-...
متن کاملNanofiber formation from sequence-selective DNA-templated self-assembly of a thymidylic acid-appended bolaamphiphile.
Quaternary self-assembly of a thymidylic acid-appended bolaamphiphile, with heteropolymeric DNA as a template, produced supramolecular helical nanofibers in the presence of specific target DNA.
متن کاملDNA-Templated Self-Assembly of Protein Arrays and Highly Conductive Nanowires
A DNA nanostructure consisting of four four-arm junctions oriented with a square aspect ratio was designed and constructed. Programmable self-assembly of 4 x 4 tiles resulted in two distinct lattice morphologies: uniform-width nanoribbons and two-dimensional nanogrids, which both display periodic square cavities. Periodic protein arrays were achieved by templated self-assembly of streptavidin o...
متن کاملProbing the importance of π-stacking interactions in DNA-templated self-assembly of bisfunctionalized guanidinium compounds.
Bisfunctionalized guanidinium compounds displaying aromatic side groups of varying size are shown to self-assemble in aqueous solution with single-stranded DNA through phosphodiester backbone recognition. Competition experiments indicate the importance of π-stacking interactions in the stabilization of these DNA-templated supramolecular self-assemblies.
متن کاملSelf-assembly of multi-hierarchically structured spongy mesoporous silica particles and mechanism of their formation.
Here we report on self-assembly of novel multi-hierarchically structured meso(nano)porous colloidal silica particles which have cylindrical pores of 4-6nm, overall size of ∼10μm and "cracks" of 50-200nm. These cracks make particles look like micro-sponges. The particles were prepared through a modified templated sol-gel self-assembly process. The mechanism of assembly of these particles is inve...
