DNA Hydrogels for Biomedical Applications
Synthesis approaches, mechanisms of DNA response to the surrounding environment and biomedical applications are highlighted.
Detecting DNA Point Mutations
The ability to readily detect point mutations could have a profound impact on the way that genetic diseases are diagnosed.
Your Form is in Your DNA: Shape-Memory Hydrogels Based on Nucleic Acid Bridging
Trifold stimuli-responsive shape memory in hydrogels is realized by combining donor-acceptor interaction with G-quadruplexes and DNA base pairing.
Finding the Perfect Match: Search for Homologous DNA Sequences during DNA Repair
In his review published in BioEssays, James Haber takes a look at how the ends of a broken chromosome find a template with which to repair such a double-strand break.
Mix and Match Nanobiosensor Design using Self-Assembled DNA Nanostructures
DNA origami nanobiosensor: The binding of the bioanalyte (left) with the ssDNA-associated bioreceptor (center) on the surface of the DNA origami is transduced as a measurable change in properties (right) that can be recognized and quantified by a detector.
Regulating Gene Expression: DNA Provides a Twist
DNA conformation can regulate gene expression, as discussed by Olga Zaytseva and Leonie Quinn in a review in BioEssays.
DNA Replication Revisited: Single-Molecule Analyses Reveal Its Highly Dynamic Nature
In their review in BioEssays, Karl Duderstadt and colleagues challenge the long-held view that DNA replication follows a single highly reproducible sequence of molecular events.
Stabilization and Denaturation of DNA Origami Nanostructures
The stability of DNA origami under strongly denaturing conditions is investigated.
