[0176] Example 1 Preparation of nucleic acid hydrogels

[0177] Step 1, use the rolling circle amplification reaction to prepare long strands of single-stranded DNA, as follows:

[0178] Mix 350 pmol of linear template strand, 10 μL of 10× ssDNA / RNA circular ligase reaction buffer, 3 μL of ssDNA / RNA circular ligase, 5 μL of 50 mM MnCl 2 Mix well, and add an appropriate amount of high-purity water to a total volume of 100 μL. Incubate at 60°C for 6h for circularization reaction, then react at 80°C for 10min to inactivate the ligase, and place at room temperature for 10min to cool down to room temperature to obtain circular template DNA.

[0179] Add 5 μL exonuclease I and 2.5 μL exonuclease III to the above system. React at 37°C for 30min to digest the uncyclized linear template strand, then inactivate at 90°C for 5min, and cool at room temperature for 10min. After the reaction product was subjected to 20% acrylamide / 8M urea denaturing gel electrophoresis, the situation ...

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosure belongs to the field of polymer materials and biotechnology, and in particular, the disclosure relates to a nucleic acid hydrogel and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Supramolecular hydrogel is a kind of soft matter material with three-dimensional network structure formed by self-assembly based on non-covalent interactions. Compared with covalently crosslinked hydrogels, the transient reversibility of noncovalent interactions endows supramolecular hydrogels with favorable dynamic properties, such as stimuli responsiveness, injectability, shape adaptability and Self-healing properties, etc., have shown great application potential in many fields such as biomedicine, flexible electronic materials, and soft robots. However, the fast dissociation and recombination rates of supramolecular interactions lead to poor mechanical properties of supramolecular hydrogels, which limits the application of supramolec...
