DNA Origami Hinge Dynamics and Thermal Fluctuations Analysis
This video presents an oxDNA simulation of a DNA origami hinge studied by Carlos Castro's team. It illustrates how thermal fluctuations enable the hinge to open and close, highlighting the importance of joint design for nanostructure dynamics.
Thermal Motion of DNA Origami Bennett Linkage in OxDNA Simulation
This movie shows an oxDNA simulation of a DNA origami Bennett linkage that has been studied experimentally by the group of Carlos Castro. The origami can undergo coupled angular motion due to its four hinge joints that connect the four pseudorigid components of the origami. In the movie, thermal fluctuations lead the origam
Thermal Dynamics of a DNA Origami Crank-Slider Mechanism
This movie shows an oxDNA simulation of a DNA origami crankslider that has been studied experimentally by the group of Carlos Castro. The simulation depicts how thermal fluctuations induce coupled angular and linear motions through hinge and sliding joints, allowing the structure to explore various configurations, aligning
Thermal Dynamics of DNA Origami Sliding Joints Explained
This movie shows an oxDNA simulation of a DNA origami sliding joint that has been studied experimentally by the group of Carlos Castro. The simulation illustrates how thermal fluctuations enable the origami to explore its structural space, providing insights into the movement of jointed DNA nanostructures.

Nice work @acsnano http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acsnano.7b06470 Characterizing the Motion of Jointed DNA Nanostructures Using a Coarse-Grained Model

Abstract Synopsis
- Coarse-grained modeling of DNA nanostructures, like the oxDNA model, helps study their detailed structure and movement, especially when experimental data is hard to get.
- The study focuses on jointed DNA structures, such as hinges and sliding joints, showing that their movement depends a lot on the specific details of the joints.
- The results match well with experimental data, suggesting that this modeling approach can be useful for designing and predicting the properties of new DNA-based nanostructures before actually building them.
