Controlling DNA nanodevices with light-switchable buffers

Cristian Pezzato, Cesare Berton, Valentin Jean Périllat

Control over synthetic DNA-based nanodevices can be achieved with a variety of physical and chemical stimuli. Actuation with light, however, is as advantageous as difficult to implement without modifying DNA strands with photo-switchable groups. Herein, we ...
