Design of hidden thermodynamic driving for non-equilibrium systems via mismatch elimination during DNA strand displacement
Synthetic molecular systems require subtle control over their thermodynamics and reaction kinetics to implement features such as catalysis. Here the authors propose using mismatches in a DNA duplex to drive catalytic reactions forward whilst maintaining tight catalytic control.
