| Abstract |
A DNA-origami actuator capable of autonomous internal motion in accord to an external chemical signal was designed, built, operated and imaged. The functional DNA nanostructure consists of a disk connected to an external ring in two, diametrically opposite points. A single stranded DNA, named probe, was connected to two edges of the disk perpendicularly to the axis of constrain. In the presence of a hybridizing target molecule, the probe coiled into a double helix that stretched the inner disk forcing the edges to move toward each other. The addition of a third single stranded molecule that displaced the target from the probe restored the initial state of the origami. Operation, dimension and shape were carefully characterized by combining microscopy and fluorescence techniques. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 September 2023.
All research outputs
#2,264,267
of 22,656,971 outputs
Outputs from Nano Letters
#1,786
of 12,311 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#12,237
of 141,607 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nano Letters
#38
of 166 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,656,971 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,311 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.9. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 141,607 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 166 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
