&nbsp;All the creatures on Earth are made of cells. The exterior and the interior of the cell are compartmentalized by biomembranes. A nanodevice that is able to actively transport only the specific oligonucleotide through the biomembrane has a great potential to deliver siRNA into the cell or to extract mRNA expressed in the cell. Here, we decided to create a novel device with such a function. We have designed a cylindrical injector/extractor device made of DNA origami. Inside the cylinder, a cascade of single stranded DNAs is planted. Once the outer-most ssDNA binds to a target oligonucleotide, the target is passed to the inner-ones one by one because of the higher bonding energy assigned to the inner ones. We also igatnvestie how the cylinder penetrates the biomembrane by using liposome as a model membrane.

<h2>Abstract</h2>

<p> &nbsp;All the creatures on Earth are made of cells. The exterior and the interior of the cell are compartmentalized by biomembranes. A nanodevice that is able to actively transport only the specific oligonucleotide through the biomembrane has a great potential to deliver siRNA into the cell or to extract mRNA expressed in the cell. Here, we decided to create a novel device with such a function. We have designed a cylindrical injector/extractor device made of DNA origami. Inside the cylinder, a cascade of single stranded DNAs is planted. Once the outer-most ssDNA binds to a target oligonucleotide, the target is passed to the inner-ones one by one because of the higher bonding energy assigned to the inner ones. We also investigate how the cylinder penetrates the biomembrane by using liposome as a model membrane. </p> <div style="text-align:center;"><img src="http://openwetware.org/images/4/46/Format_D-Heart.jpg" alt="D-Heart" width="600"></div>

<p> <strong>Selector</strong>: Single stranded DNA. Once the outer-most ssDNA binds to a target, the target is passed to the inner-ones one by one.</br> <strong>Gate</strong>: Cylindrical structure connecting the inside and outside like gates. A cascade of the "Selector" is planted in this. We can use this as an injector or extractor.</br> <strong>Membrane</strong>: The exterior and the interior of the cell are compartmentalized by biomembranes. We use liposome as a model membrane.</br> </p>
