Researchers have succeeded in developing a DNA-based molecular controller. Crucially, this controller enables the autonomous assembly and disassembly of molecular robots, as opposed to manually ...

Duke University scientists have figured out the genetic code that instructs proteins to either self-assemble or disassemble in response to environmental stimuli, such as changes in temperature, ...

A NEW LINE OF INTELLIGENT FASTENERS could soon change how products are designed, assembled, and serviced. The fasteners, from Textron Fastening Systems, Troy, Mich., are wired with embedded microchips ...

Shape-shifting malleable, gelatinous forms are orbiting Earth at this very moment -- assembling and disassembling, growing as they are bombarded by magnetic pulses. These forms will take shape as ...

Following a series of mass shootings that have reignited the national debate about guns, the House of Representatives passed a bill on June 8 that included limitations on so-called "ghost guns." Some ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from Tohoku University and Kyoto University have successfully developed a DNA-based molecular controller that autonomously directs the assembly and disassembly of molecular ...
