A dissertation study at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) developed two-dimensional fishnet-like structures from DNA ...

DNA origami cages constrain individual proteins toward preferred orientations on electrodes, dramatically improving electrical measurement precision and enabling detection of subtle structural changes ...

In 1953, a pair of scientists named James D. Watson and Francis H.C. Crick — with help from the data supplied by the research of another scientist, Rosalind Franklin, — successfully modeled the ...

Chemotherapy is the primary cancer treatment used today. It involves using cytotoxic agents which attack and kill cells that are rapidly dividing, like cancer cells. However, delivering these drugs ...

The US military has begun to test swarming drones—”distributed collaborative systems made up of many small, cheap, unmanned aircraft.” Several other militaries are doing likewise. Flocks of these ...

DNA origami is a technique used for the nanoscale folding of DNA to develop two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) shapes at a nanoscale range. No bigger than a virus, each of these ...

Researchers bolster antitumor immune defenses using cancer vaccines made from DNA origami. “One of the attractive things about DNA origami is how relatively simple it is for anybody to design,” Shih ...

Researchers working at the California Institute of Technology used DNA nanotechnology, also known as DNA origami, to "paint" Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece. DNA origami involves folding a single long ...

Using a technique called DNA origami, researchers in the US and China have succeeded in designing biomimetic silica nanocomposites with pre-defined sizes and shapes at sub-5-nm resolution. The ...

Researchers describe how to exploit DNA origami as a platform to build superconducting nanoarchitectures. The structures they built are addressable with nanometric precision that can be used as a ...

A dissertation study at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) developed two-dimensional fishnet-like structures from DNA origami for silicon surfaces ...
