DNA Hairpin Gate: A Renewable DNA Seesaw Motif Using Hairpins
In 2011, Qian et al. introduced the DNA seesaw gate motif, which is a powerful feed-forward DNA nanodevice that can perform digital logic computations. Their landmark work managed to evaluate moderately large Boolean circuits by cascading multiple DNA seesaw gates. Although their design is robust in solution and scalable, it is designed for one-time use and is not reusable. This prevents pursui...
متن کاملHole Transport in A-form DNA/RNA Hybrid Duplexes
DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes are prevalent in many cellular functions and are an attractive target form for electrochemical biosensing and electric nanodevice. However the electronic conductivities of DNA/RNA hybrid duplex remain relatively unexplored and limited further technological applications. Here cyclopropyl-modified deoxyribose- and ribose-adenosines were developed to explore hole transport ...
متن کاملNucleobase transport in cultured renal epithelial cells.
The translocation o f the purine nucleobases, guanine and hypoxanthine, across the plasma membrane of mammalian cells is the essential first step of the purine salvage pathway. Until recently, it was believed that such purines entered a variety o f cells via facilitated-diffusion systems that were either specific for nucleobases or also accepted nucleosides as permeants [ I , 21. However, this ...
متن کاملDNA hairpins: fuel for autonomous DNA devices.
We present a study of the hybridization of complementary DNA hairpin loops, with particular reference to their use as fuel for autonomous DNA devices. The rate of spontaneous hybridization between complementary hairpins can be reduced by increasing the neck length or decreasing the loop length. Hairpins with larger loops rapidly form long-lived kissed complexes. Hairpin loops may be opened by s...
متن کاملSilicene-based DNA Nucleobase Sensing
We propose a DNA sequencing scheme based on silicene nanopores. Using first principles theory, we compute the electrical properties of such pores in the absence and presence of nucleobases. Within a two-terminal geometry, we analyze the current-voltage relation in the presence of nucleobases with various orientations. We demonstrate that when nucleobases pass through a pore, even after sampling...
