We describe the operational principle, synthesis, and applications of the enzyme-DNA chimeras. These are supramolecular constructions where a DNA spring is coupled to an enzyme and introduces artificial allosteric control of the enzyme. This method is universal and can be applied to various enzymes and proteins. In addition, this method is…[Read more]
