RNA nanotechnology

Abstract

DNA, RNA, and proteins are seemed to be immensely substantial tools for nanobiotechnological applications; this is since their exceptional biochemical properties and role. Particularly RNA is categorized over comparatively hightemperature stability, varied organizational pliability, and their performance in natural circumstances. Above properties made, RNA, a valued constituent for bionanotechnology processes and usefulness, especially RNA nanotechnology, could synthesize complex molecules using simple molecules through de nova nanostructures having exceptional utility by the strategy, integration, and manipulations of most predominant processes which are usually based on different RNA structures and because of their vital biochemical properties. The current chapter emphasis on the basic principles inspires the normal design of RNA nanostructures, pronounces the important methods that are used in constructing nanoparticles' self-assemblages, and further describes the associated challenges and excelled opportunities of RNA nanotechnology in near future. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.
