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 ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

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

Illinois researchers developed a nanorobotic hand made of DNA that can grab viruses for detection or inhibition. In this ...
