DNA lf bl d M l l C tiDNA self-assembly and Molecular Computing
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains thegenetic instructions for the development and function of living organisms. g p g g
The DNA double helix is held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases attached to the two strands. The four bases found in DNA arebases attached to the two strands. The four bases found in DNA are adenine (abbreviated A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T).

Protein structures
Tertiary structure: the overall shape of a single protein molecule; the spatial relationship of the secondary structures to one anotherspatial relationship of the secondary structures to one another.
Tertiary structure is generally stabilized by nonlocal interactions, most commonly the formation of a hydrophobic core, but also through salt bridges hydrogen bonds disulfide bonds and even post translationalbridges, hydrogen bonds, disulfide bonds, and even post-translational modifications.
Quaternary structure: the shape or structure that results from the interaction of more than one protein molecule, usually called protein subunits in this context, which function as part of the larger assembly or protein complexfunction as part of the larger assembly or protein complex.

Osmotic pressure is an exponential function of block l t ti PEO t i t ti t ib tcopolymer concentration. PEO-water interactions contribute
more to the osmotic pressure of Pluronic-water systems.Different interactions have been observed at different
concentration range of Pluronic-water systems.Two different decay lengths are observed at force vs. distance y g
curve; one is comparable to PEO coil, another similar to “hydration force”.

Surface Tension-Powered Self-Assembly
Wh t’ f t i ??What’s surface tension??
In physics, surface tension is an effect within the surface layer of a liquid that causes that layer to behave as an elastic sheetq y
Surface tension is caused by the attraction between the molecules of the liquid by various intermolecular forces
