The project: DNA Folding
Basic IdeaAbstract The idea is to design a strand of DNA such that it wraps into some meaningful shape. There are three different stages for this project: First, the DNA should fold into a two-dimensional rectangular sheet. Secondly, this sheet should wrap itself up into the shape of a short pipe. And last, these little pipes should hook themselves up to each other such that they form one single long pipe.
Scetches - Pipes
The DNA sequence for the Pipes design can be found [http://omnibus.uni-freiburg.de/~kouznet/pipe/Tube-M13mp18-NEB-d.txt here], design picture is [http://omnibus.uni-freiburg.de/~kouznet/pipe/pip6.jpg here], the set of staples is [http://omnibus.uni-freiburg.de/~kouznet/pipe/StapleTube.txt here]. We’ll put the AFM pictures on the wiki as soon as febit delivers DNA. Enterprise: Barbie Nanoatelier Once the process of DNA folding into 3D structures is understood, shapes can be chosen arbitrarily. The idea of the Barbie Nanoatelier is that the DNA should wrap into a 3D T-Shirt, 3D Pants, etc.
Scetches - T-Shirt
 The DNA sequence for the T-Shirt design can be found [http://omnibus.uni-freiburg.de/~kouznet/t-shirt/T-shirt_M13mp18_NEB_d.txt here], the picture is [http://omnibus.uni-freiburg.de/~kouznet/t-shirt/T-shirt.jpg here], and the staples are [http://omnibus.uni-freiburg.de/~kouznet/t-shirt/T-shirt_staples.txt here] there. Hey, venture capitalists, where are you? The price of all of 50 billion T-Shirts would be only 7200bases x €0.17/base = €1224. Don’t miss the chance. It could be a great business tomorrow! Individual projectsOther projects and prices could be found on individual Mutant's pages. In addition, you can find some hot information on ‘GEM Freiburg Fellow 2006’ page. The other toys will be unconventional computing, cryptography, nanoelectronics, nanooptics, drug delivery systems, smart nanomaterials, nanoswarm, and eventually an artificial life. Time is money! |
