DNA nanotechnology gets real
In the beginning there was the cube. Nadrian Seeman and coworkers at New York University set out in the early 1990s to construct a nanometre scale cube from DNA. The idea was to use the highly sophisticated methods of molecular biology to build DNA into something new and entirely artificial. Linking DNA fragments together by means of hybridisation of overlapping ends followed by ligation, Seema...
متن کاملDesign Tools for Reinforced 3D DNA Nanostructures
The field of DNA nanotechnology has grown since Nadrian Seeman founded it in 1980 creating a three dimensional structure made of DNA. The field has grown and there are many techniques to build these structures. One of them is DNA origami developed by P. Rothemund in 2006. This technology allows us to build two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures made with a single long strand called sc...
متن کاملDNA nanotechnology for nanophotonic applications.
DNA nanotechnology has touched the epitome of miniaturization by integrating various nanometer size particles with nanometer precision. This enticing bottom-up approach has employed small DNA tiles, large multi-dimensional polymeric structures or more recently DNA origami to organize nanoparticles of different inorganic materials, small organic molecules or macro-biomolecules like proteins, and...
متن کاملDNA nanotechnology: a future perspective
In addition to its genetic function, DNA is one of the most distinct and smart self-assembling nanomaterials. DNA nanotechnology exploits the predictable self-assembly of DNA oligonucleotides to design and assemble innovative and highly discrete nanostructures. Highly ordered DNA motifs are capable of providing an ultra-fine framework for the next generation of nanofabrications. The majority of...
متن کامل3D DNA Crystals and Nanotechnology
DNA’s molecular recognition properties have made it one of the most widely used biomacromolecular construction materials. The programmed assembly of DNA oligonucleotides has been used to create complex 2D and 3D self-assembled architectures and to guide the assembly of other molecules. The origins of DNA nanotechnology are rooted in the goal of assembling DNA molecules into designed periodic ar...
