DNA Origami: Recent Progress and Applications

This chapter explores the basic concept of DNA origami and its various types. By showing the progress made in structural DNA nanotechnology during the last 15 years, the chapter draws attention to the capability of DNA origami to construct complex structures in both 2D and 3D level. As well as looking at a few examples of dynamic DNA nanostructures, the chapter also explores the possible applications of DNA origami in different fields, such as biological computing, nanorobotics, and DNA walkers.
