Self-Replicating DNA Nanostructures: Autocatalytic Nanodevices derived from Catalytic Nanodevices
This paper describes some general techniques for transforming the design of a class of catalytic DNA nanodevices into the design for autocatalytic DNA nanodevices. Our techniques are particularly applicable to catalytic DNA nanodevices that act as detectors, where we would like their response to be sped up via autocatalytic behavior. We provide an example of this general scheme for design of au...
متن کاملTowards autonomous DNA-based nanodevices
Molecular recognition, programmability, self-assembling capabilites and biocompatibility are unique features of DNA. The basic approach of DNA nanotechnology is to exploit these properties in order to fabricate novel materials and structures on the nanometer scale. This cumulative dissertation deals with three aspects of this young research area: fast analysis, autonomous control of functional ...
متن کاملEnzyme-Operated DNA-Based Nanodevices
Functional molecular nanodevices and nanomachines have attracted a growing interest for their potential use in life science and nanomedicine. In particular, due to their versatility and modularity DNA-based nanodevices appear extremely promising. However, a limitation of such devices is represented by the limited number of molecular stimuli and cues that can be used to control and regulate thei...
متن کاملNanometer scale rafts built from DNA tiles
Hierarchical self-assembly was used to construct mesoscale DNA objects as eventual templates for molecular electronic circuitry. DNA tiles were assembled from single-stranded precursors. The tiles measure 4 nm x 12 nm x 2 nm. They can be programmed to self-assemble into larger objects, such as a 4-tile raft 37 nm long. The composition and structure of the DNA rafts were characterized in solutio...
متن کاملModeling DNA Nanodevices Using Graph Rewrite Systems
DNA based nanostructures and devices are becoming ubiquitous in nanotechnology with rapid advancements in theory and experiments in DNA self-assembly which have led to a myriad of DNA nanodevices. However, the modeling methods used by researchers in the field for design and analysis of DNA nanostructures and nanodevices have not progressed at the same rate. Specifically, there does not exist a ...
