Nanotechnology is broadly defined as the science of creating and developing well-structured materials and their components. DNA-based nanotechnology employs branched motifs to these ends.

Applications range from thin-films and surface coatings, to bottom-up nanopatterning and 3D nanoparticle lattices. DNA nanotechnology can be used to create synthetic biological systems, such as ...

“We can capture that poly(A) tail on a surface that has a poly ... the probe will always pass over the DNA. The key to this type of sequencing is that each nano-knife edge probe is 'tuned ...

The findings also revealed that DNA can be repaired by cooperation between repair proteins. These proteins organize themselves into "hubs," where multiple damaged DNA regions come together. These ...

Describing their achievement, Marker revealed that the team has built a, “…totally new DNA nanotechnology where we can punch holes in membranes, on demand, to be able to pass important signals across ...

Researchers at the University of Sydney Nano Institute have made a significant advance in the field of molecular robotics by ...

Scientists at the University of Sydney Nano Institute have made an exciting breakthrough in nanotechnology by using DNA—the ...

A tiny, four-fingered 'hand' folded from a single piece of DNA can pick up the virus that causes COVID-19 for highly ...

Weizmann Institute of Science researchers were thrilled when they managed to observe the birth of a protein made by a single DNA molecule: No one had previously seen this event outside a cell. That ...

Researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign developed a small, four-fingered “hand” made from a single piece ...

A tiny, four-fingered “hand” folded from a single piece of DNA can pick up the virus that causes COVID-19 for detection.
