title = "DNA machines for molecular self-assembly",
abstract = "The molecular recognition properties of DNA are used to construct and power two prototype nanomachines, a pair of molecular tweezers and a nanoactuator. The motion of these machines is driven by hybridization with DNA 'fuel' strands. Cyclic operation between two distinct mechanical states is possible for both machines and is demonstrated by fluorescence resonance energy transfer experiments. DNA serves as structural material, as fuel and as information carrier.",
