DNA origami has proven useful for organizing diverse nanoscale components into patterns with 6 nm resolution. However for many applications, such as nanoelectronics, large-scale organization of ...

Researchers created a proof-of-concept DNA origami device that encodes messages as nano-Morse patterns and conceals them ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- DNA is not merely a carrier of genetic information; DNA is a useful building material for nanoscale structures. In a way similar to origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, a long ...

To study the behavior of T-cells, an unusual method was used: DNA molecules were folded in an ingenious way, similar to the paper folding art origami. In this way, not just a double helix is created, ...

1. Take a rectangular origami paper and fold it in half. 2. Then fold it partially, to make a crease on top. 3. Fold the two upper corners to form a triangle. 4. Now fold both the bottom layers of the ...

A central challenge in nanotechnology is the parallel fabrication of complex geometries for nanodevices. Here we report a general method for arranging single-walled carbon nanotubes in two dimensions ...

An excess of streptavidin was subsequently added to the origami scaffold to bind to the 12 biotins, and the AFM images recorded after incubation clearly reveal the appearance of 12 well-resolved ...

Point the finger: Zinc-finger proteins are convenient and site-selective adaptors for targeting specific locations within DNA-origami structures. Orthogonal targeting of the specific locations in the ...
