November 3rd, 2004
Abstract:
Researchers working to form nanoscale machines and materials are increasingly tapping nature's building blocks. Two particularly helpful molecules are DNA, which encodes instructions for making the proteins that carry out life's processes, and the motor protein kinesin, which is part of the a cell's transportation system.
