Nanotechnology Now - Press Release: The virus trap: Hollow nano-objects made of DNA could trap viruses and render them harmless

Our NanoNews Digest Sponsors Home > Press > The virus trap: Hollow nano-objects made of DNA could trap viruses and render them harmless Lined on the inside with virus-binding molecules, nano-shells made of DNA material bind viruses tightly and thus render them harmless. CREDIT Elena-Marie Willner / DietzLab / TUM Abstract: To date, there are no effective antidotes against most virus infections. An interdisciplinary research team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has now developed a new approach: they engulf and neutralize viruses with nano-capsules tailored from genetic material using the DNA origami method. The strategy has already been tested against hepatitis and adeno-associated viruses in cell cultures. It may also prove successful against corona viruses.
