ARTGEL: A temperature-regulated electrophoresis platform for quantitative studies of reversible association in gels
Rupam Saha, Seth Fraden
Here we present ARTGEL, an actively regulated-temperature gel electrophoresis platform designed for long-duration experiments under independently controlled thermal and electrical…
Active assembly and non-reciprocal dynamics of elastic membranes
John Berezney, Sattvic Ray, Itamar Kolvin +6
Equilibrium self-assembly and conventional materials processing techniques fall far short of mimicking dynamic self-actuating processes that are commonplace throughout biology. To…
From toroids to helical tubules: Kirigami-inspired programmable assembly of two-periodic curved crystals
Mason Price, Daichi Hayakawa, Thomas E. Videbæk +6
Biology is full of intricate molecular structures whose geometries are inextricably linked to their function. Many of these structures exhibit varying curvature, such as the helica…
Modular programming of interaction and geometric specificity enables assembly of complex DNA origami nanostructures
Rupam Saha, Daichi Hayakawa, Thomas E. Videbaek +8
We present a modular DNA origami design approach to address the challenges of assembling geometrically complex nanoscale structures, including those with nonuniform Gaussian curvat…
Measuring multisubunit mechanics of geometrically-programmed colloidal assemblies via cryo-EM multi-body refinement
Thomas E. Videbæk, Daichi Hayakawa, Michael F. Hagan +3
Programmable self-assembly has recently enabled the creation of complex structures through precise control of the interparticle interactions and the particle geometries. Targeting…
Economical and versatile subunit design principles for self-assembled DNA origami structures
Wei-Shao Wei, Thomas E. Videbæk, Daichi Hayakawa +3
Self-assembly of nanoscale synthetic subunits is a promising bottom-up strategy for fabrication of functional materials. Here, we introduce a design principle for DNA origami nanop…
