Robust triangular RNA brick adds to RNA nanotechnology toolkit

The complex molecular recognition code of RNA offers RNA nanotechnology a greater variety of 3D structures and functions than are present in DNA nanotechnology, but the RNA structures can be fragile. New RNA triangles that resist boiling solve this problem.

RNA nanotechnology – fewer structures in living cells than in test tubes

A study of RNA structures actually present in cells reveals that cells spend energy restricting thermodynamically driven RNA folding so that fewer RNA structures are found in cells than in test tubes.

Novel RNA structural motifs expand tool kit for RNA nanotechnology

New computational methods to explore the rapidly expanding collection of high resolution three-dimensional RNA structures reveal new RNA structural motifs, identifying additional building blocks for complex RNA nanostructures.

RNA CAD tool for synthetic biology may facilitate RNA nanotechnology

RNA CAD tools developed for RNA-regulated control of gene expression in synthetic biology successfully engineered metabolic pathways in bacteria. Will engineering RNA-based genetic control systems lead to design tools for other RNA-based molecular machine systems?

Handling flexible parts in RNA nanotechnology

New computational method screens for small molecules that bind to RNA molecules that move through a variety of conformations.

High-resolution structure reveals versatility of RNA nanotechnology

A high-resolution crystal structure of a small square made by self-assembly of RNA molecules reveals each corner of the square to have a unique structure.

Advance could speed RNA nanotechnology

RNA nanostructures chemically modified to be resistant to degradation retain 3D structure and biological activity.

Programming cell behavior with RNA nanotechnology

Nanotech applications based upon modules of RNA that bind small molecules to control the catalytic activity of other RNA modules may form the basis for a wide variety of synthetic molecular machines.
