AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The creation of complex cellular environments is critical to mimicking tissue environments that will play a critical role in next-generation tissue engineering, stem cell programming, and therapeutic screening. To address this growing need, techniques capable of manipulating cell-cell and cell-material interactions are required that span single-cell to 3D tissue architectures. DNA programmed assembly and placement of cells present a powerful technique for the bottom-up synthesis of living microtissues for probing key questions in cell-cell and cell-material-driven behaviors through its refined control over placement and architecture. This review examines the current state of the art in the programming of cellular interactions with DNA and its applications spanning tissue model building, fundamental cellular biology, and cell manipulation for measurements across a host of applications.

Background: Acquisition of stem-like properties requires overcoming the epigenetic barrier of differentiation and re-expression of several genes involved in stemness and the cell cycle. DNA methylation is the classic epigenetic mechanism for de/differentiation. The writers and erasers of DNA methylation are not site-specific enzymes for altering specific gene methylation.

Biological systems utilize precise spatial organization to facilitate and regulate information transmission within signaling networks. Inspired by this, artificial scaffolds that enable delicate spatial arrangements are desirable to increase the local concentration of reactants, expedite specific interactions, and minimize undesired interference. In this study, we presented an integrated biosensing nanodevice, termed TRI-HCR, in which hybridization chain reaction (HCR) probes were precisely organized on a triangular DNA origami nanostructure (TRI) with finely-tuned distance, quantity, and pattern.

The assembly of biological systems forms nonequilibrium patterns with different functionalities through molecular-level communication via stepwise sequential interaction and activation. The mimicking of this molecular signaling offers extensive opportunities to design self-assemblies of bioinspired synthetic nonequilibrium systems to develop molecular robots with active, adaptive, and autonomous behavior. Herein, the design and construction of biomolecular motor system, microtubule (MT)-kinesin based molecular swarm system, are reported through stepwise sequential interactions of DNA.

To date, RNA-targeted chemical matter is under explored due to a lack of robust screening assays. In this study, we present a novel RNA-targeted small molecule screening approach using a specialized DNA-encoded library (DEL). Our findings reveal that the specialized DEL library, called "DEL Zipper", can significantly reduce single-stranded DNA-RNA region interaction signals during various kinds of RNA selection.
