To assemble these minuscule structures, researchers first create a scaffold: a long piece of single-stranded DNA with a carefully designed sequence of bases. Then they add hundreds of shorter DNA ...

Recently, research using DNA origami technology to create nanostructures for advanced bio-convergence fields has been actively conducted. Especially, the technology to utilize environmental changes ...

For students from the Graduate School of the Arts and Sciences, summer is the opportunity to dedicate time to research, mentor undergraduate students, and get closer to their findings. Brandeis ...

Researchers bolster antitumor immune defenses using cancer vaccines made from DNA origami. “One of the attractive things about DNA origami is how relatively simple it is for anybody to design,” Shih ...

(Nanowerk News) Immunotherapy is viewed as an exceptionally promising weapon in the fight against cancer. In essence, the aim is to activate the body’s immune system in such a way that it identifies ...

A new study highlights the potential of artificial DNA structures that, when fitted with antibodies, instruct the immune system to specifically target cancerous cells. Immunotherapy is viewed as an ...

Pasadena, Calif.–Scientists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and IBM’s Almaden Research Center have developed a new technique to orient and position self-assembled DNA shapes and ...
