10 results about "Molecular machine" patented technology

A molecular machine, nanite, or nanomachine, is a molecular component that produces quasi-mechanical movements (output) in response to specific stimuli (input). In biology, macromolecular machines frequently perform tasks essential for life such as DNA replication and ATP synthesis. The expression is often more generally applied to molecules that simply mimic functions that occur at the macroscopic level. The term is also common in nanotechnology where a number of highly complex molecular machines have been proposed that are aimed at the goal of constructing a molecular assembler.

A method for preparing a photosynthetic nanomotor powered by a biomolecular motor

This invention discloses a photosynthetic nanomotor powered by a biomolecular motor and its preparation method, belonging to the field of colloidal motors. This invention aims to address the current limitations of research on the rotational dynamics of FoF1-ATP synthase molecular machines, which is limited to the motion of single and isolated objects. The photosynthetic nanomotor is prepared based on supramolecular self-assembly technology through the reconstruction of thylakoid vesicles and lecithin vesicles. The photophosphorylation system on the thylakoid membrane surface is reconstructed on the photosynthetic nanomotor. Utilizing the preserved biomolecular motor FoF1-ATPase as the power engine, under external visible light irradiation, protons generated by the photosystem accumulate in the photosynthetic liposome motor, driving the FoF1-ATPase to synthesize the energy currency ATP. Through metabolic reactions, light energy is converted into chemical energy ATP, ultimately generating self-propulsion. Due to its unique energy currency regeneration capability, the photosynthetic liposome motor has broad application prospects in the biomedical field.
