Molecular motors are biological nanomachines that convert chemical energy into mechanical work at the molecular level. These highly efficient and specialized proteins are responsible for a wide range ...

These nano-sized motors are highly programmable and can be designed for use in molecular computation, diagnostics, and transport. Despite their potential, DNA-nanoparticle motors don't have the ...

Just a few years ago, scientists at Delft and other places discovered that these SMC proteins are molecular motors that make long loops in our DNA, and that these loops are the key regulators of ...

These nano-sized motors are highly programmable and can be designed for use in molecular computation, diagnostics, and transport. Despite their genius, DNA-nanoparticle motors don't have the speed of ...
