To simulate long time and length scale processes involving DNA it is necessary to use a coarse-grained description. Here we provide an overview of different approaches to such coarse graining, focussing on those at the nucleotide level that…
DNA methylation is an intensely studied epigenetic mark implicated in many biological processes of direct clinical relevance. While sequencing based technologies are increasingly allowing high resolution measurements of DNA methylation,…
The main obstacles for the practical deployment of DNA-based data storage platforms are the prohibitively high cost of synthetic DNA and the large number of errors introduced during synthesis. In particular, synthetic DNA products contain…
Recent advances in DNA sequencing technologies have put ubiquitous availability of fully sequenced human genomes within reach. It is no longer hard to imagine the day when everyone will have the means to obtain and store one's own DNA…
The idea is a nanoscale extension of a sporting event called a `color run'. The filament is wrapped with a DNA origami `barrel', which acts as the nanoscale equivalent of a white t-shirt. The DNA t-shirt has dangling ss-DNA `handles' that…
