39 results about "M13 bacteriophage" patented technology

M13 is a filamentous bacteriophage composed of circular single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) which is 6407 nucleotides long encapsulated in approximately 2700 copies of the major coat protein P8, and capped with 5 copies of two different minor coat proteins (P9, P6, P3) on the ends. The minor coat protein P3 attaches to the receptor at the tip of the F pilus of the host Escherichia coli. Infection with M13 lysogenic phage. The infection causes turbid plaques in E. coli lawns, of intermediary opacity in comparison to regular lysis plaques. However, a decrease in the rate of cell growth is seen in the infected cells. M13 plasmids are used for many recombinant DNA processes, and the virus has also used for phage display, nanostructures and nanotechnology applications.

Inorganic nanowires

An inorganic nanowire having an organic scaffold substantially removed from the inorganic nanowire, the inorganic nanowire consisting essentially of fused inorganic nanoparticles substantially free of the organic scaffold, and methods of making same. For example, a virus-based scaffold for the synthesis of single crystal ZnS, CdS and free-standing L10 CoPt and FePt nanowires can be used, with the means of modifying substrate specificity through standard biological methods. Peptides can be selected through an evolutionary screening process that exhibit control of composition, size, and phase during nanoparticle nucleation have been expressed on the highly ordered filamentous capsid of the M13 bacteriophage. The incorporation of specific, nucleating peptides into the generic scaffold of the M13 coat structure can provide a viable template for the directed synthesis of a variety of materials including semiconducting and magnetic materials. Removal of the viral template via annealing can promote oriented aggregation-based crystal growth, forming individual crystalline nanowires. The unique ability to interchange substrate specific peptides into the linear self-assembled filamentous construct of the M13 virus introduces a material tunability not seen in previous synthetic routes. Therefore, this system provides a genetic tool kit for growing and organizing nanowires from various materials including semiconducting and magnetic materials.

DNA origami structure, closing and releasing method of DNA origami structure and application of DNA origami structure as drug delivery system

The invention relates to a DNA origami structure, a closing and releasing method of the DNA origami structure and an application of the DNA origami structure as a drug delivery system, and belongs tothe technical field of DNA nano drug delivery. The DNA origami structure is a DNA tetrahedron and comprises three side triangular origamis and a central triangular origami, and three sides of the central triangular origami are connected with the three side triangular origamis respectively; skeleton chains of the central triangular origami and the side triangular origamis are annular single-helix DNA chains of M13 bacteriophage; the central triangular origami and the side triangular origamis are occluded through base complementary pairing of respective internal staple chains and respective skeleton chains; the central triangular origami is complementarily paired with connecting staple chains of the side triangular origamis through a connecting staple chain; and the central triangular origami and the side triangular origamis capture nano-gold particles through capture chains, and the side triangular origamis and the central triangular origami form a three-dimensional tetrahedral origamistructure through traction of the nano-gold particles. According to the invention, the drug loading efficiency is improved.
