Remote-controlled microflow using light-controlled state transitions within DNA condensates has been reported by scientists from the Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. By switching between ultraviolet ...

A Sticky Situation: Recombinant DNA Technology Janet Mertz’s work with simian virus 40 DNA during her graduate years was pivotal for developing DNA recombination as we now know it.

By creating arbitrary sticky ends, PfAgo could make assembly of large DNA molecules easier, and enables cloning of large DNA molecules such as biochemical pathways and large genes.

Figure 1: Calculation of cumulative XOR by self-assembly of DNA tiles. In periodic assemblies, the sticky ends contain positional information that directs the associations of one or more tile ...

Though useful in genetic engineering, no AREs generate defined "sticky ends" -- an uneven break in the DNA ladder-structure that leaves complementary overhangs, improving adhesion when introducing ...

By creating arbitrary sticky ends, PfAgo could make assembly of large DNA molecules easier and would enable cloning of large DNA molecules, such as biochemical pathways and large genes.

Given a certain set of sticky end sequences, the nanorobot and its feedstock can produce a particular set of different constructs depending on the programming. Ned Seeman and other researchers ...

DNA is more than just the secret of life--it is also a versatile component for making nanoscopic structures and devices The year 2003 witnessed the 50th anniversary of the discovery of DNAs double ...

The structural difference in DNA cleavage—Cas12a generates staggered cuts with sticky ends—may explain the divergence in repair outcomes.

Each side of a Y-motif comprises a short sticky end that interacts with other 'compatible' sticky ends.
