In nature, this cross-shaped, double-stacked DNA structure is like the 4-way traffic stop of genetics – where 2 separate DNA helices temporality meet to exchange genetic information. The Holliday ...

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Arizona State University have designed a computer program that can print any free-form drawing as a 2D nanoscale structure made of DNA.

“Solid-state nanopores are compatible with wafer-scale manufacturing processes and therefore offer a significant advantage ...

Because the researchers have such precise control over the structure of the synthetic DNA ... Autonomously designed free-form 2D DNA origami, Science Advances (2019). DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.aav0655 ...

The free, open-source software, designed by a team of scientists from MIT and Arizona State University, lets anyone create 2D nanostructures ... and tri-dimensional DNA structure.

Previous work has been limited to 2D ... DNA structures are basically a mould or a scaffold on which another nanostructure can be built – in this case a replica of the original. But that ...

Third, thermodynamic studies with 2D probes (single- or triple-stem structure) have demonstrated their capability to sensitively discriminate single-base mismatched DNA. However, it should be ...

"3D electronic architectures that imitate the natural 3D structure of the brain ... researchers can get long DNA strands to fold themselves into 2D or 3D shapes. Snippets of DNA stapled onto ...

The technique is a new way of exploiting the structure of DNA to guide silica ... induces the growth of amorphous silica on the DNA.” The researchers made different-shaped nanostructures, including 2D ...

The latest imaging method from the Broad Institute uncovers structural disruptions in the nucleus associated with progeria at ...

The strategy avoids damage to the 2D substrate, allows for multiple types of nanoparticles ... physical assembly techniques cannot easily match. By using DNA to modulate both structure and function, ...
