DNA nanostructures can perform some of the complex robotic fabrication process for manufacturing and self-replication. Building things and performing work with nanorobots has been a major technical ...

When the Empire State Building was constructed, its 102 stories rose above midtown one piece at a time, with each individual element combining to become, for 40 years, the world’s tallest building.

Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven are doing—constructing intricate 3D nanostructures by harnessing the ...

Cr yo-ET captured dozens of projection images of each slice from different angles. Computational processing then stitched ...

University of Queensland researchers have developed an affordable, open-source DNA measurement tool that can be built using a home 3D printer. The Do-It-Yourself Nucleic Acid Fluorometer—DIYNAFLUOR—is ...

The genome is more than a linear code; it is a dynamic structure whose three-dimensional folding dictates how genes are regulated. Traditional sequencing technologies capture base-level variation but ...

Genoa (Italy), 24 August 2023 – Using DNA technologies to create a new generation of tiny electronics components at low production costs: this is the main goal of the European-funded project 3D-BRICKS ...

Current genetic sequencing techniques can provide much information about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or a drop of blood. But they are unable to reveal where ...

Newly developed artificial intelligence (AI) programs accurately predicted the role of DNA's regulatory elements and three-dimensional (3D) structure based solely on its raw sequence, according to ...

A new approach breaks down complicated designs into modular building blocks for easy assembly from the bottom up. (Nanowerk News) When the Empire State Building was constructed, its 102 stories rose ...
