Versatile DNA Origami Nanostructures in Simplified and Modular Designing Framework

摘要

We introduce a simplified and modular architecture for design and construction of complex origami nanostructures. A series of basic two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures are presented. As the resulting structures can be virtually divided into blocks, modular remodeling such as translocation, contraction/extension, and bending is carried out. Structures under such a designing framework are morphable. Local conformational changes can propagate to the entire structure to reshape the global conformation.
