Abstract
Efficient biocatalytic cascade reactions play a crucial role in guiding intricate, specific and selective intracellular transformation processes. However, the catalytic activity of the enzyme cascade reaction in bulk solution was greatly impacted by the spatial morphology and inter-enzyme distance. The programmability and addressability nature of framework nucleic acid (FNA) allows to be used as scaffold for immobilization and to direct the spatial arrangement of enzyme cascade molecules. Here, we used tetrahedral DNA framework (TDF) as nanorulers to assemble two enzymes for constructing a double-enzyme complex, which significantly enhance the catalytic efficiency of sarcosine oxidase (SOx)/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) cascade system. We synthesized four types of TDF nanorulers capable of programming the lateral distance between enzymes from 5.67 nm to 12.33 nm. Enzymes were chemical modified by ssDNA while preserving most catalytic activity. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to verify the formation of double-enzyme complex. Four types of double-enzyme complexes with different enzyme distance were constructed, in which TDF26(SOx+HRP) exhibited the highest relative enzyme cascade catalytic activity, ~3.11-fold of free-state enzyme. Importantly, all the double-enzyme complexes demonstrate a substantial improvement in enzyme cascade catalytic activity compared to free enzymes.

Komiyama M. Ce-based solid-phase catalysts for phosphate hydrolysis as new tools for next-generation nanoarchitectonics. SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF ADVANCED MATERIALS 2023; 24:2250705. [PMID: 37701758 PMCID: PMC10494760 DOI: 10.1080/14686996.2023.2250705] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/14/2023]
Abstract
This review comprehensively covers synthetic catalysts for the hydrolysis of biorelevant phosphates and pyrophosphates, which bridge between nanoarchitectonics and biology to construct their interdisciplinary hybrids. In the early 1980s, remarkable catalytic activity of Ce4+ ion for phosphate hydrolysis was found. More recently, this finding has been extended to Ce-based solid catalysts (CeO2 and Ce-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)), which are directly compatible with nanoarchitectonics. Monoesters and triesters of phosphates, as well as pyrophosphates, were effectively cleaved by these catalysts. With the use of either CeO2 nanoparticles or elegantly designed Ce-based MOF, highly stable phosphodiester linkages were also hydrolyzed. On the surfaces of all these solid catalysts, Ce4+ and Ce3+ coexist and cooperate for the catalysis. The Ce4+ activates phosphate substrates as a strong acid, whereas the Ce3+ provides metal-bound hydroxide as an eminent nucleophile. Applications of these Ce-based catalysts to practical purposes are also discussed.

Abstract
Control over multiple optical elements that can be dynamically rearranged to yield substantial three-dimensional structural transformations is of great importance to realize reconfigurable plasmonic nanoarchitectures with sensitive and distinct optical feedback. In this work, we demonstrate a transformable plasmonic helix system, in which multiple gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can be directly transported by DNA swingarms to target positions without undergoing consecutive stepwise movements. The swingarms allow for programmable AuNP translocations in large leaps within plasmonic nanoarchitectures, giving rise to tailored circular dichroism spectra. Our work provides an instructive bottom-up solution to building complex dynamic plasmonic systems, which can exhibit prominent optical responses through cooperative rearrangements of the constituent optical elements with high fidelity and programmability.

Abstract
A myriad of DNA origami nanostructures have been demonstrated in various intriguing applications. In pursuit of facile yet high-yield synthesis, the mechanisms underlying DNA origami folding need to be resolved. Here, we visualize the folding processes of several multidomain DNA origami structures under ambient annealing conditions in solution using atomic force microscopy with submolecular resolution. We reveal the coexistence of diverse transitional structures that might result in the same prescribed products. Based on the experimental observations and the simulation of the energy landscapes, we propose the heterogeneity of the folding pathways of multidomain DNA origami structures. Our findings may contribute to understanding the high-yield folding mechanism of DNA origami.

Abstract
Nucleic acid networks conjugated to native enzymes and supramolecular DNA nanostructures modified with enzymes or DNAzymes act as functional reaction modules for guiding dynamic catalytic transformations. These systems are exemplified with the assembly of constitutional dynamic networks (CDNs) composed of nucleic acid-functionalized enzymes, as constituents, undergoing triggered structural reconfiguration, leading to dynamically switched biocatalytic cascades. By coupling two nucleic acid/enzyme networks, the intercommunicated feedback-driven dynamic biocatalytic operation of the system is demonstrated. In addition, the tailoring of a nucleic acid/enzyme reaction network driving a dissipative, transient, biocatalytic cascade is introduced as a model system for out-of-equilibrium dynamically modulated biocatalytic transformation in nature. Also, supramolecular nucleic acid machines or DNA nanostructures, modified with DNAzyme or enzyme constituents, act as functional reaction modules driving temporal dynamic catalysis. The design of dynamic supramolecular machines is exemplified with the introduction of an interlocked two-ring catenane device that is dynamically reversibly switched between two states operating two different DNAzymes, and with the tailoring of a DNA-tweezers device functionalized with enzyme/DNAzyme constituents that guides the dynamic ON/OFF operation of a biocatalytic cascade by opening and closing the molecular device. In addition, DNA origami nanostructures provide functional scaffolds for the programmed positioning of enzymes or DNAzyme for the switchable operation of catalytic transformations. This is introduced by the tailored functionalization of the edges of origami tiles with nucleic acids guiding the switchable formation of DNAzyme catalysts through the dimerization/separation of the tiles. In addition, the programmed deposition of two-enzyme/cofactor constituents on the origami raft allowed the dynamic photochemical activation of the cofactor-mediated biocatalytic cascade on the spatially biocatalytic assembly on the scaffold. Furthermore, photoinduced "mechanical" switchable and reversible unlocking and closing of nanoholes in the origami frameworks allow the "ON" and "OFF" operation of DNAzyme units in the nanoholes, confined environments. The future challenges and potential applications of dynamic nucleic acid/enzyme and DNAzyme conjugates are discussed in the conclusion paragraph.

Abstract
Interlocked DNA nanostructures perform programmable movements in nanoscales such as sliding, contraction, and expansion. However, utilizing nanoscaled interlocked movements to regulate the functions of larger length scaled matrix and developing their applications has not yet been reported. Herein we describe the assembly of DNA-based daisy chain rotaxane nanostructure (DNA-DCR) composed of two hollow DNA nanostructures as macrocycles, two interlocked axles and two triangular prism-shaped DNA structures as stoppers, in which three mechanical states─fixed extended state (FES), sliding state (SS), and fixed contracted state (FCS)─are characterized by using toehold-mediated strand displacement reaction (SDR). The DNA-DCRs are further used as nanocomposites and introduced into hydrogel matrix to produce interlocked hydrogels, which shows modulable stiffness by elongating the interlocked axles to regulate the hydrogel swelling with hybridization chain reaction (HCR) treatment. Then the DCR-hydrogels are employed as dynamic biointerfaces for human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) adhesion studies. First, hMSCs showed lower cell density on bare DCR-hydrogel treated with HCR-initiated swelling for stiffness decreasing. Second, the cell adhesion ligand (RGD) modified DNA-DCRs are constructed for hydrogel functionalization. DCR(RGD) hydrogel endows the mobility of RGDs by switching the mechanical states of DNA-DCR. HMSCs showed increased cell density on DCRSS(RGD) hydrogel than on DCRFCS(RGD) hydrogel. Therefore, our DNA-DCR nanocomposite hydrogel exhibit dual-programmable performances including swelling adjustment and offering sliding for incorporated ligands, which can be both utilized as dynamic scaffolds for regulating the stem cell adhesion. The dual-programmable cross-scale regulation from interlocked DNA nanostructures to hydrogel matrix was achieved, demonstrating a new pathway of DNA-based materials.

Abstract
The bacterial flagellar motor is a rotary machine composed of functional modular components, which can perform bidirectional rotations to control the migration behavior of the bacterial cell. It resembles a two-cogwheel gear system, which consists of small and large cogwheels with cogs at the edges to regulate rotations. Such gearset models provide elegant blueprints to design and build artificial nanomachinery with desired functionalities. In this work, we demonstrate DNA assembly of a structurally well-defined nanodevice, which can carry out programmable rotations powered by DNA fuels. Our rotary nanodevice consists of three modular components, small origami ring, large origami ring, and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). They mimic the sun gear, ring gear, and planet gears in a planetary gearset accordingly. These modular components are self-assembled in a compact manner, such that they can work cooperatively to impart bidirectional rotations. The rotary dynamics is optically recorded using fluorescence spectroscopy in real time, given the sensitive distance-dependent interactions between the tethered fluorophores and AuNPs on the rings. The experimental results are well supported by the theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Photoresponsive nucleic acids attract growing interest as functional constituents in materials science. Integration of photoisomerizable units into DNA strands provides an ideal handle for the reversible reconfiguration of nucleic acid architectures by light irradiation, triggering changes in the chemical and structural properties of the nanostructures that can be exploited in the development of photoresponsive functional devices such as machines, origami structures and ion channels, as well as environmentally adaptable 'smart' materials including nanoparticle aggregates and hydrogels. Moreover, photoresponsive DNA components allow control over the composition of dynamic supramolecular ensembles that mimic native networks. Beyond this, the modification of nucleic acids with photosensitizer functionality enables these biopolymers to act as scaffolds for spatial organization of electron transfer reactions mimicking natural photosynthesis. This review provides a comprehensive overview of these exciting developments in the design of photoresponsive DNA materials, and showcases a range of applications in catalysis, sensing and drug delivery/release. The key challenges facing the development of the field in the coming years are addressed, and exciting emergent research directions are identified.

Abstract
Natural living systems are driven by delicate protein networks whose functions are precisely controlled by many parameters, such as number, distance, orientation, and position. Focusing on regulation rather than just imitation, the construction of artificial protein networks is important in many research areas, including biomedicine, synthetic biology and chemical biology. DNA origami, sophisticated nanostructures with rational design, can offer predictable, programmable, and addressable scaffolds for protein assembly with nanometer precision. Recently, many interdisciplinary efforts have achieved the precise construction of DNA origami-based protein networks, and their emerging application in many areas. To inspire more fantastic research and applications, herein we highlight the applicability and potentiality of DNA origami-based protein networks. After a brief introduction to the development and features of DNA origami, some important factors for the precise construction of DNA origami-based protein networks are discussed, including protein-DNA conjugation methods, networks with different patterns and the controllable parameters in the networks. The discussion then focuses on the emerging application of DNA origami-based protein networks in several areas, including enzymatic reaction regulation, sensing, bionics, biophysics, and biomedicine. Finally, current challenges and opportunities in this research field are discussed.

Abstract
In living organisms, proteins are organized prevalently through a self-association mechanism to form dimers and oligomers, which often confer new functions at the intermolecular interfaces. Despite the progress on DNA-assembled artificial systems, endeavors have been largely paid to achieve monomeric nanostructures that mimic motor proteins for a single type of motion. Here, we demonstrate a DNA-assembled building block with rotary and walking modules, which can introduce new motion through dimerization and oligomerization. The building block is a chiral system, comprising two interacting gold nanorods to perform rotation and walking, respectively. Through dimerization, two building blocks can form a dimer to yield coordinated sliding. Further oligomerization leads to higher-order structures, containing alternating rotation and sliding dimer interfaces to impose structural twisting. Our hierarchical assembly scheme offers a design blueprint to construct DNA-assembled advanced architectures with high degrees of freedom to tailor the optical responses and regulate multi-motion on the nanoscale. Creation of high-order architectures using DNA devices is of interest for increasing the complexity of synthetic systems. Here, the authors, inspired by biological oligomers, create DNA dimers and oligomers that combining rotation and walking to make high-order systems with more complex conformational changes.

Abstract
DNA origami tiles provide nanostructures for the spatial and temporal control of functional loads on the scaffolds. Here we introduce the active generation of nanoholes in the origami scaffolds using DNAzymes or light as triggers and present the programmed and switchable catalysis in the resulting nanocavities. We engineer “window” domains locked into the origami scaffolds by substrates of the Zn2+-ion- or Pb2+-ion-dependent DNAzymes. Using Zn2+ ions and/or Pb2+ ions, the programmed unlocking of the “window” domains is demonstrated. The tailored functionalization of the origami scaffolds allows the programmed operation of catalytic processes in the confined nanocavities. Also, the “window” domain is integrated into the origami scaffold using photoisomerizable azobenzene-modified locks. The cyclic photoisomerization of the locks between the cis and trans states leads to a reversible opening and closure of the nanoholes and to the cyclic light-induced switching of catalytic processes in the nanocavities. DNA origami provide scaffolds for spatial and temporal control of catalytic functions in confined nanocavities. Here the authors engineer nanoholes in DNA origami scaffolds.
