Research Abstract |
We developed a "molecular combination dial," which can be controlled by the order of multiple inputs, and a "nano-cage," which can be combined with the dial. In detail, we successfully constructed DNA capsules that can be broken by UV light (nano-cage) by inserting a photo-controllable molecule (azobenzene) into DNA buckyballs developed by Mao. Moreover, we developed a molecular machine that can be controlled by the order of UV light irradiation and addition of ATP (molecular combination dial), with the use of a computer program for automatic design.
