A catch and release program for single-stranded DNA.
Uncovering the mechanisms by which single-stranded binding proteins both protect and expose single-stranded DNA has important implications for our understanding of DNA replication and repair. A new study serves up a master class in developing a full kinetic model for one such protein, mtSSB, showing how DNA can be reeled in and set free to control accessibility.
متن کاملWafer-scale integration of sacrificial nanofluidic chips for detecting and manipulating single DNA molecules
Wafer-scale fabrication of complex nanofluidic systems with integrated electronics is essential to realizing ubiquitous, compact, reliable, high-sensitivity and low-cost biomolecular sensors. Here we report a scalable fabrication strategy capable of producing nanofluidic chips with complex designs and down to single-digit nanometre dimensions over 200 mm wafer scale. Compatible with semiconduct...
متن کاملPiezoresistivity in single DNA molecules
Piezoresistivity is a fundamental property of materials that has found many device applications. Here we report piezoresistivity in double helical DNA molecules. By studying the dependence of molecular conductance and piezoresistivity of single DNA molecules with different sequences and lengths, and performing molecular orbital calculations, we show that the piezoresistivity of DNA is caused by...
متن کاملSequencing single molecules of DNA.
In 2004, the NIH set a remarkable challenge: the 1000 dollars genome. Roughly speaking, success would provide, by 2015, the ability to sequence the complete genome of an individual human, quickly and at an accessible price. An intermediate goal of a 100,000 dollars genome was set for 2010. While the cost of Sanger sequencing has dropped dramatically over the past two decades, it is unlikely tha...
متن کاملCatch and Release of Photons
Information and communication technologies continue to revolutionize our modern societies. Further transformation may come from quantum technologies, which are still in their infancy but offer the possibility to process information more efficiently or to communicate more securely than any conceivable classical technology could. People are already dreaming of a quantum internet [1] that would co...
