Previously, vaccinologists decorated therapeutic nanoparticles with CpG adjuvants. 6 However, William Shih, a synthetic biologist at Harvard University and an author of the Nature Nanotechnology paper ...

Pallav Kosuri (left) and Amanda Wacker (right) recorded the stepping motion of RNA polymerase along DNA by inventing a long-lasting fluorescent DNA origami nanostructure method called dye-cycling ...

Forty-four years ago, Nadrian Seeman published his groundbreaking ideas on using DNA as a structural material, expanding ...

In trying to decipher the “DNA origami” responsible for the generation of transplantable human skin, Stanford researchers have uncovered a master regulatory hierarchy controlling tissue ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
