DNA Self-Assembly For Constructing 3D Boxes
We propose a mathematical model of DNA self-assembly using 2D tiles to form 3D nanostructures. This is the first work to combine studies in self-assembly and nanotechnology in 3D, just as Rothemund and Winfree did in the 2D case. Our model is a more precise superset of their Tile Assembly Model that facilitates building scalable 3D molecules. Under our model, we present algorithms to build a ho...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of 3D prestressed tensegrity structures from DNA
Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, is a property of a structure indicating a reliance on a balance between components that are either in pure compression or pure tension for stability. Tensegrity structures exhibit extremely high strength-to-weight ratios and great resilience, and are therefore widely used in engineering, robotics and architecture. Here, we report nanoscale, prestressed, three...
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...
متن کامل3D DNA self-assembly for maximum weighted independent set problem
The problem of finding a maximum weighted independent set (MWIS) is a classical combinatorial optimization problem of graph theory, which has been proved to be NP-complete (NPC). A 2-D DNA tile self-assembly model for solving the problem has been proposed previously, but it still has many deficiencies. In this paper, we will propose a 3-D DNA tile self-assembly model based on 2D DNA tile self-a...
متن کاملSelf-assembly in Lyotropic Chromonic Liquid Crystals
We have developed a class of idealized models of chromonic molecules which are miscible in water, but which can form aggregates which in turn organize into lyotropic liquid crystal (LC) phases. By carrying out Monte Carlo simulation in a binary mixture of model chromonic and water molecules, we have studied the effect of concentration and molecular shape on the nature of resulting mesophases. W...
