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

Scientists often describe life as a series of chemical reactions. Pallav Kosuri, Ph.D., describes life as movement. Chemical ...

Griffith University researchers have played a key role in using DNA "origami" templates to control the way viruses are assembled. The global team behind the research, titled "DNA-origami-directed ...

One of the challenges of fighting pancreatic cancer is finding ways to penetrate the organ's dense tissue to define the margins between malignant and normal tissue. A new study uses DNA origami ...

In our cells, countless RNA polymerase (RNAP) enzymes zip along our DNA, rotating and twirling in an elaborate molecular ...

DNA stores the instructions for life and, along with enzymes and other molecules, computes everything from hair color to risk of developing diseases. Harnessing that prowess and immense storage ...

A three-dimensional DNA origami robot has been developed to probe the mechanism of recently discovered cellular receptors sensitive to touch and force. On a cellular level, our bodies have a dense ...

Researchers have spent the last decade working to make DNA origami bigger and cheaper. Now, four studies published today (December 6) in Nature represent a substantial step forward. Three research ...

Researchers have developed a method to program the spatial organization of double-stranded DNA by incorporating Hoogsteen interactions. Researchers at Aarhus University (Denmark) have developed a ...
