Boczko, Erik M.2008-08-202008-08-202008-08-13http://hdl.handle.net/1803/1222The paper briefly describes the construction of self organizing nanoparticles that can be designed to detect and record arbitrary intracellular events. The basic design captures nucleic acids. The design utilizes a single viral coat protein to nucleate a capsid if and only if a quantum of specific intracellular events occur.enIntracellular event detectionSingle molecule detectionViral capsid assemblySelf organizing nanoparticlesNanoparticlesViral proteinsBiosensorsSelf-assembly (Chemistry)Technical Report
