Instructions and help about Challenges And Applications For Self Assembled DNA Nanostructures Cs Duke

this is a very simple model of dna and dna is a double helix structure which contains two uh phosphate backbone running antiparallel to each other okay and these two um backbones are joined together through the dna base pairing so imagine this is the the a this is the t and a g and c so the base pair to form a double helical structure so we can use this as a nano material because the scale really fit perfectly in the range of nano scale material defined from 1 to 100 nanometers okay then you can use this as a building block by designing dna strands that can hybridize with another piece of dna so this will bring multiple dnas together into a network so what we want to do is to create branch junction structures that can self-assemble into two-dimensional and eventually three-dimensional structure so we need to probably we need to break a nick somewhere and imagine to have another knee headaches come on the sideway and break another nick so you can bridge these two dnas together by runnin
