DNA Nano-Engine
Leaf-spring nano-engine as simulated in oxDNA model. [Image: The researchers] An international team of scientists has recently developed a novel type of nano-engine made of DNA. It is driven by a clever mechanism that can perform pulsing movements. The researchers are now planning to fit it with a c...

DNA nanotechnology is amazing! You can see a 3D visualisation of the assembled structure here: https://nanobase.org/structure/196
WOW, what a great link. I have posted a stereo image of the structure to both 3D anaglyph view and CrossView
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !3danaglyph@lemmy.world, !crossview@lemmy.world

Thank you! And really nice! What software do you use to create those? If you're interested, you can also load the "dat" and "top" files from Nanobase into https://sulcgroup.github.io/oxdna-viewer/ and export files for Blender, etc. I'm also trying to get this to work: https://akodiat.github.io/oxJenga/, were you can interact with a live DNA origami simulation in VR/AR, but the leaf spring design still is a bit too large for the software to handle, unfortunately.
