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 ...

AMHERST — Greg Grason draws inspiration from the wings of butterflies and birds. As a researcher and professor of polymer science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, he and his team look to ...

DNA nanotechnology has become an intense research field, with hundreds of research labs engaged in it, based on the idea that DNA can be used as a programmable structural material for the creation of ...

A new vaccine design uses folded DNA to steer the immune system toward producing the rare immune cells needed to make protective antibodies against HIV. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Using a technique called “DNA origami,” researchers created traps that encase large viruses—such as SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and Zika—in hopes of preventing them from infecting cells. A study ...

DNA origami cages constrain individual proteins toward preferred orientations on electrodes, dramatically improving electrical measurement precision and enabling detection of subtle structural changes ...
