Chinese scientists demonstrate that protein folding is a quantum transition between torsion states on a polypeptide chain.
In yet another in a long list of improvements to DNA based molecular machines, DNA molecular robots learn to walk in any direction along a branched track.
New options to control nanoelectronic systems may arise from the demonstration that mechanical manipulation can control conductance through single molecule electrode junctions.
James C. Ellenbogen writes to provide insight and personal perspective on the world’s first programmable nanoprocessor, achieved as the product of a collaboration between Harvard and MITRE, with the team at MITRE comprising Shamik Das, James Klemic, and Ellenbogen.
Combining nanoparticles and graphene with platinum produces more efficient and durable catalyst for fuel cells.

A new technique is reported to use templates to build synthetic molecules the size of proteins by precisely stringing together smaller molecules using an approach based upon the vernier scale.
Irradiation with two wavelengths of visible light switches the position of a nitrogen atom close to a nickel ion, and in the process switches the magnetic state of the nickel ion.
RNA nanostructures chemically modified to be resistant to degradation retain 3D structure and biological activity.
