摘要:
The present invention is directed to compositions and methods of delivering a chemotherapeutic agent via a polynueleotide-functionalized nanoparticle (PN-NP).
摘要:
Methods of patterning multiple biomolecules on a surface are disclosed. The method includes inking a polymer pen array, where tips are inked with selected inks comprising the biomolecules, and transferring the biomolecules to a surface using a polymer pen lithography technique. Methods of using the multiple patterned biomolecules on a surface are also disclosed.
摘要:
Click chemistry is used to construct molecular transport junctions (MTJs) through assembly of a molecular wire across a nanogap formed between two electrodes. Also disclosed are methods of using click chemistry and oligonucleotide-modified nanoparticles to detect the presence of copper in a sample.
摘要:
Disclosed are drug delivery compositions comprising an oligonucleotide-modified nanoparticle and a therapeutic agent. Specifically, disclosed are compositions comprising a number of oligonucleotide molecules in a ratio to therapeutic agent molecules to allow a sufficient transportation of the therapeutic agent molecules into a cell. The therapeutic agents include both hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Different attachments of therapeutic agents in a composition are also described.
摘要:
The disclosure relates to a method of forming a pattern having pattern elements with a plurality of sizes on a substrate surface with a tilted pen array that includes choosing a tilt geometry for a pen array with respect to a substrate, inducing the tilt geometry between the pen array and the substrate surface, and forming a pattern having pattern elements on the substrate surface with the titled pen array, whereby the size of the formed pattern elements varies across the substrate surface along the tilted axis or axes. For example, the tilt geometry is in reference to the substrate surface and comprises a first angle with respect to a first axis of the substrate and a second angle with respect to a second axis of the substrate, the second axis being perpendicular to the first axis, and at least one of the first and second angles being non-zero.
摘要:
The present invention concerns nanoparticles functionalized with an oligonucleotide and a domain for a variety of uses, including but not limited to gene regulation. More specifically, the disclosure provides a nanoparticle that is taken up by a cell at an efficiency different than a nanoparticle functionalized with the same oligonucleotide but does not contain a domain.
摘要:
The present invention provides structures formed from crosslinked polynucleotides, where a subset of the polynucleotides binds to a target under physiological conditions, where the signal group detectably changes upon binding.
