Design and Development of Remote-Controlled Photoresponsive DNA Condensates

Caption

In a recent study, scientists from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, have developed light-responsive DNA condensates that exhibit multi-modal mechanical actions. These novel micro-assemblies can be further developed for potential applications in fluid-based diagnostic chips and molecular computers.
