The area of dynamic DNA nanotechnology, or DNA circuits, holds great promise as a highly programmable toolbox that can be used in various applications, including molecular computing and biomolecular detection. However, a key bottleneck is the recurring issue of circuit leakage. The assembly of the localized circuit is dynamically driven by the recognition of biomolecules - a different approach from most methods, which are based on a static DNA origami assembly. The design guidelines for individual reaction modules presented here, which focus on minimizing circuit leakage, are established through NUPACK simulation and tested experimentally - which will be useful for researchers interested in adapting the concepts for other contexts. In the closing section, the design concepts are successfully applied to the biomolecular sensing of a broad range of targets including the single nucleotide mutations, proteins, and cell surface receptorsSummary: Introduction -- Literature Review -- Materials and Methods -- Modular Framework for Engineering a Self-Contained DNA Circuit -- Designing Hybridization Chain Reaction Monomers for Robust Signal Amplification -- Design Concepts in Association Toehold for Robust Signal Transduction -- DNA Split Proximity Circuit as a General Platform for Interrogating Biomolecular Events -- DNA Split Proximity Circuit for Visualizing Cell Surface Receptor Clustering- A Case Study Using Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Family -- Conclusion and Future OutlooksPPN: PPN: 1031835741Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-CMS | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXC
