Dna based nanobots 2016

Each base naturally pairs with a certain other base always in pairs; A with T and C with G. The researchers then added an enzyme that links all the single strands together, leaving no open ends. Some previous DNA structures have included a molecular lock that can only be opened with an external key. Juul cautioned that these experiments are still just a proof of concept.

Even the images of the DNA Nanocages in action included here are simply computer animations produced at the University of Rome. The researchers did find other physical ways of proving their work. They put the molecules on X-ray film and, because the HRP substrate emits light, it made a spot on the film and they were able to track the enzyme.

You don't have to open anything except your mouth. So if you can add that to the cage, only the cancer cell would take it up. The cancer cell sees an attractive molecule riding on friendly human DNA, having no idea that inside that DNA latticework is a drug that can wipe it out.

It is also a matter of clinical trials and FDA approvals, which tend to take a really long time. So even if the technology is there, it might take a while. Awaiting cells can then consume it. She has been working on this project at Duke University since DNA has four bases: Each base naturally pairs with a certain other base always in pairs; A with T and C with G.
