摘要：

Making DNA work: A DNA nanomachine with a mechanism based on a DNA duplex-triplex transition (see figure) was constructed. The key component is a DNA triplex that contains C+GC triplets and is only stable under acidic conditions. The DNA machine uses H+ and OH- ions as fuel and its only waste products are H2O and NaCl.
