Goals
Therefore, our goal is to create DNA origami containers that can load, hold, and release cargo. To do this, we aim to:
- Design and fold robust three dimensional origami featuring enclosed interiors with optimized volumes
- Design and implement opening/closing mechanisms and loading/solubilization mechanisms for our containers that allow us to controllably:
- Load various forms of cargo by attaching it to the inside of a container and then closing the container
- Solubilize this cargo without leakage to the exterior of the container
- Open our container, releasing our cargo
