A team of researchers has generated 3-D images from 129 individual molecules of flexible DNA origami particles. Their work provides the first experimental verification of the theoretical model of ...

Just as the name suggests, DNA origami is a fabrication technique wherein researchers fold DNA strands to create precisely shaped 2- and 3-dimensional nanostructures. These highly programmable ...

Now, for the first time, a team of researchers from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Ohio State University have generated 3-D images from 129 individual molecules of flexible ...

Probing the assembly process that occurs when single-stranded DNA is folded into desired shapes by ‘DNA origami’ shows that it can be guided by controlling the strengths of local and long ...

Essentially DNA origami enables long strands of DNA to fold, through self-assembly, into any desired shape. (In the 2006 paper, Rothemund famously used the technique to create miniature DNA smiley ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have used DNA origami, the art of folding DNA into desired structures, to show how an important cell receptor can be activated in a previously ...

Scientists have developed a modified DNA origami technology for constructing complex 3-D DNA nanostructures. The technique, reported by Hao Yan, Ph.D., Yan Liu, Ph.D., graduate student Dongran Han ...

Scientists are now able to use the self-assembling properties of DNA to craft even more intricate structures out of its helical strands, according to a paper published in the journal Nature. Using ...

A new twist on DNA origami Meta-DNA structures transform the DNA nanotechnology world Date: September 7, 2020 Source: Arizona State University Summary: A team of scientists has just announced the ...

Researchers have developed a method to build tiny structures out of DNA based on 3-D polygonal shapes created with a computer. The DNA "scaffold" strand is in white, and the DNA "staple" strands are ...

DNA origami rationale The CpG adjuvant is a synthetic strand of DNA made up of repeated CpG nucleotide motifs that mimic the genetic material from immune cell-invading bacterial and viral pathogens.
