Biological materials are self-assembled with near-atomic precision in living cells, whereas
synthetic 3D structures generally lack such precision and controllability. Recently, DNA …

DNA, a genetic material, has been employed in different scientific directions for various
biological applications as driven by DNA nanotechnology in the past decades, including …

The detection of samples at ultralow concentrations (one to ten copies in 100 μl) in biofluids
is hampered by the orders-of-magnitude higher amounts of 'background'biomolecules. Here …

To impart directionality to the motions of a molecular mechanism, one must overcome the
random thermal forces that are ubiquitous on such small scales and in liquid solution at …

DNA is traditionally known as a central genetic biomolecule in living systems. From an
alternative perspective, DNA is a versatile molecular building-block for the construction of …

The cytoskeleton is an essential component of a cell. It controls the cell shape, establishes
the internal organization, and performs vital biological functions. Building synthetic …

The predictable nature of DNA interactions enables the programmable assembly of highly
advanced 2D and 3D DNA structures of nanoscale dimensions. The access to ever larger …

In nature, DNA molecules carry the hereditary information. But DNA has physical and
chemical properties that make it attractive for uses beyond heredity. In this Review, we …

Controlling cooperativity, synchronization, amplification and translation of intermolecular
and intramolecular dynamics over different length scales for applications in stimuli …

In recent years, DNA-based biosensors have shown great potential as the candidate of the
next generation biomedical detection device due to their robust chemical properties and …
