Direct AFM observation of an opening event of a DNA cuboid constructed via a prism structure.

چکیده
A cuboid structure was constructed using a DNA origami design based on a square prism structure. The structure was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and dynamic light scattering. The real-time opening event of the cuboid was directly observed by high-speed AFM.

DNA prism structures constructed by folding of multiple rectangular arms.
Novel multiarm DNA structures were designed using two-dimensional DNA origami scaffolds, and these structures were folded into hollow three-dimensional (3D) structures by introducing connection strands into the arms. The opening of the prism structures was examined by high-speed AFM imaging, which showed the dissociation of the connecting arms in the 3D structures.
متن کاملPartial Observation in Distributed Supervisory Control of Discrete-Event Systems
Distributed supervisory control is a method to synthesize local controllers in discrete-eventsystems with a systematic observation of the plant. Some works were reported on extending this methodby which local controllers are constructed so that observation properties are preserved from monolithic todistributed supervisory control, in an up-down approach. In this paper, we find circumstances in ...
متن کاملAn investigation of neutron direct damages at energies of 0.1-2 MeV on the DNA molecules with atomic structure deduced using Geant4 toolkit
This study proposes a method to estimate RBE of fast neutrons using Monte Carlo simulations. This approach is based on the combination of an atomic resolution DNA geometrical model and Monte Carlo simulations for tracking particles. Atomic positions were extracted from the Protein Data Bank. The GEANT4 code was used for tracking the secondary particles generated by fast neutrons during their in...

متن کاملDirect Single-Molecule Observation of Mode and Geometry of RecA-Mediated Homology Search.
Genomic integrity, when compromised by accrued DNA lesions, is maintained through efficient repair via homologous recombination. For this process the ubiquitous recombinase A (RecA), and its homologues such as the human Rad51, are of central importance, able to align and exchange homologous sequences within single-stranded and double-stranded DNA in order to swap out defective regions. Here, we...
