Cadnano
Curated by SignalProvider of open-source CAD software for DNA nanotechnology
Overview
Cadnano (MIT licensed) offers a solution for the designing of three-dimensional DNA origami nanostructures. These structures are used as a building block for programmable construction of objects like two-dimensional crystals, nanotubes, and three-dimensional wireframe nanopolyhedra. It provides a fast way to assemble DNA into potentially useful nanostructures to be used to deliver drugs, act as biosensors, perform artificial photosynthesis and more. It claims to overcome a major challenge of automation of the design process, as it makes it easier for designers to create complex 3-D structures, controlling their flexibility and potential folding stability.
