[5p-A203-6] Physical research of micropattern formation of DNA gel microcapsules and its application to molecular robotics

〇Masahiro Takinoue1 (1.Tokyo Tech)

Keywords:DNA, microcapsule, molecular robot

We found that Y-shaped DNA self-assembled on a water-in-oil microdroplet interface with positive charge and formed fractal-like skeleton gel microcapsules. In this presentation, we will report the formation mechanism and discuss about the application to the construction of molecular robots and artificial cells.
