Vasopressin mRNA localization in nerve cells: characterization of cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors.

abstract：:Patchy particles with shape complementarity can serve as building blocks for assembling colloidal superstructures. Alternatively, encoding information on patches using DNA can direct assembly into a variety of crystalline or other preprogrammed structures. Here, we present a tool where DNA is used both to engineer sha...
