Toward Affordable Structural DNA Nanotechnology

February 4, 2009

Science recently reported a research advance linked to a series of topics I’ve covered:

Self-assembled systems
George Church’s roadmap for radically lowering the cost of DNA
Structural DNA nanotechnology for modular molecular composite nanosystems
Cryo-electron microscopy for visualizing large self-assembled structures

The advance is an improved structural map of the core of the self-assembled protein machinery that some bacteria use [...]
