报告摘要:A fundamentaldesign rule that nature has developed for biological machines is the intimatecorrelation between motion and function. One class of biological machines ismolecular motors in living cells, which directly convert chemical energy intomechanical work. They coexist in every eukaryotic cell, but differ in theirtypes of motion, the filaments they bind to, the cargos they carry, as well as thework they perform. Such natural structures offer inspiration and blueprints forconstructing DNA-assembled artificial systems, which mimic their functionality.in this talk, I will discuss DNA nanostructures with distinct motion andfunctions that interrogate synthetic cells. The interplay between the dynamicbehavior of DNA nanostructures and synthetic cells gives rise to peculiarphenomena, which may rejuvenate the field of synthetic biology and greatlyenhance the technological value of DNA nanotechnology.
