5 results about "Molecular motor" patented technology

Molecular motors are natural (biological) or artificial molecular machines that are the essential agents of movement in living organisms. In general terms, a motor is a device that consumes energy in one form and converts it into motion or mechanical work; for example, many protein-based molecular motors harness the chemical free energy released by the hydrolysis of ATP in order to perform mechanical work. In terms of energetic efficiency, this type of motor can be superior to currently available man-made motors. One important difference between molecular motors and macroscopic motors is that molecular motors operate in the thermal bath, an environment in which the fluctuations due to thermal noise are significant.

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.

Light-driven molecular machine and its application in transmembrane delivery of trivalent metal drugs

This invention discloses a light-driven molecular machine and its application in transmembrane delivery of trivalent metal drugs. The molecular machine features a light-driven molecular motor based on a tetrasubstituted crowded olefin, which consists of a core unit, a polyethylene glycol chain, and trivalent metal ion coordinating groups. This invention utilizes the directional rotational motion of the molecular motor under light irradiation, embedding it into a phospholipid bilayer membrane, and achieving light-controlled transmembrane transport of trivalent metal ions through a "bind-release" mechanism. This molecular machine can selectively complex trivalent metal ions (such as Bi...) 3+ Ga 3+ Ce 3+ (etc.), and accelerates ion transmembrane transport under light-driven conditions, thereby disrupting the intracellular and extracellular ion balance of bacteria. Experiments have shown that this system has significant light-controlled antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. This invention has advantages such as controllable structure, precise spatiotemporal targeting, and ease of derivatization, and has promising applications in antibacterial therapy and biomedicine.
