  2. DNA nanotechnology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_nanotechnology

    DNA nanotechnology, specifically, is an example of bottom-up molecular self-assembly, in which molecular components spontaneously organize into stable structures; the particular form of these structures is induced by the physical and chemical properties of the components selected by the designers. [19]

  3. Nanobiotechnology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanobiotechnology

    For example, DNA nanotechnology or cellular engineering would be classified as bionanotechnology because they involve working with biomolecules on the nanoscale. Conversely, many new medical technologies involving nanoparticles as delivery systems or as sensors would be examples of nanobiotechnology since they involve using nanotechnology to ...

  4. Spherical nucleic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_nucleic_acid

    In the animal model, the treatment resulted in a 20% increase in survival rate and 3 to 4-fold reduction in tumor size. This SNA-based therapeutic approach establishes a platform for treating a wide range of diseases with a genetic basis via digital drug design (where a new drug is made by changing the sequence of nucleic acid on a SNA).

  5. Nucleic acid design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_design

    Nucleic acid design is used in DNA nanotechnology to design strands which will self-assemble into a desired target structure. These include examples such as DNA machines , periodic two- and three-dimensional lattices, polyhedra, and DNA origami . [ 2 ]

  6. Nanorobotics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanorobotics

    DNA structure can provide means to assemble 2D and 3D nanomechanical devices. DNA based machines can be activated using small molecules, proteins and other molecules of DNA. [ 44 ] [ 45 ] [ 46 ] Biological circuit gates based on DNA materials have been engineered as molecular machines to allow in-vitro drug delivery for targeted health problems ...

    Its genetic features, including many known and mapped phenotypic mutants and a large number of progeny per cross (typically 100–200) facilitated the discovery of transposons ("jumping genes"). Many DNA markers have been mapped and the genome has been sequenced. (Genetics, Molecular biology, Agronomy)

    List of aquarium diseases; List of dog diseases; List of feline diseases; List of diseases of the honey bee; List of diseases spread by invertebrates; Poultry disease; Lists of zoonotic diseases, infectious diseases that have jumped from an animal to a human

  9. Kinetoplastida - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetoplastida

    The kinetoplast, after which the class is named, is a dense DNA-containing granule within the cell's single mitochondrion, containing many copies of the mitochondrial genome. The structure is made up of a network of concatenated circular DNA molecules and their related structural proteins along with DNA and RNA polymerases.
