“But when it enters E. coli, the linear DNA gets converted to a circular molecule because the viral DNA has sticky—or cohesive—ends,” said Mertz. She hypothesized that this also happened with ...

When they act on a DNA molecule, restriction enzymes produce "blunt" ends when they cut in the middle of the recognition sequence, and they yield "sticky" ends when they cut at the recognition ...

We have constructed 2-dimensional DNA arrays in three different motifs. In the first motif, we have used DX molecules with sticky ends that have been designed to tile the plane. Our arrays are ...
