DNA Nanotechnology and DNA Origami

DNA nanotechnology

In the DNA nanotechnology group, we are creating DNA molecular nanodevices and functional materials, and developing single-molecule imaging and analysis system for understanding biological phenomena.

Research

All existing things in nature, for example, cells in animals and plants are built up by assembly and organization of the predefined molecules, and their functions are expressed by the reaction of the molecules in a highly ordered fashion. We are learning the nature’s system and mimicking it to create a new system in a small scale. So if we artificially design nanoscale structures and precisely incorporate molecules there, it could be an ultimate technology not only for studying basic science but also for creation of new materials and devices for physical and biological applications. Using a DNA molecule as a basic component, we are working on developing novel technologies applicable for imaging, sensing, creation of nanosystem and nanodevice, and delivery system by combining designable DNA nanoscale structure & space (bioarchitecture) and chemistry.

DNA is one of the most promising molecules for preparing various nanoscale structures and spaces. This allows us to integrate multiple functional molecules and nanomaterials onto a designed nanostructure and also to produce a large-scale complicated architecture. Using an innovative DNA self-assembly system “DNA origami”, our group focuses on the following research topics. (1) Design and construction of the novel 2D and 3D DNA nanostructures and spaces; (2) Programmed assembly of nanostructures into the 2D and 3D architectures; (3) Regulation of chemical and enzymatic reactions in a designed nanospace; (4) Visualization and analysis of biomolecules in a designed nanostructure; (5) Analysis of physical properties of biomolecules in a designed nanospace; (6) Development of novel DNA crystals; (7) Development of molecular nanodevices; (8) Applications for photonic nanomaterials; (9) Applications for molecular machines and robots; (10) Development of novel delivery system for cellular applications; (11) Diagnosis and medical applications. We are using the high-speed AFM imaging system for visualizing the dynamics of molecules and nanostructures.
