DNA Motors Reach 30 nm/s Speeds
Can DNA-nanoparticle motors get up to speed with motor proteins?
DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical energy is converted into mechanical motion by biasing the Brownian motion.
Most people associate sunburns with DNA damage -- it's what we've been taught in textbooks and by dermatologists for years.
