Abstract

The ability to control protein expression in cells is of particular significance since effective nucleic acid-based methods are in critical demand for understanding cellular mechanisms, quantitative cell biology, and systems biology. By intracellular introduction gold nanoplasmonic particle (GNPs) carriers of oligonucleotides, selective control of gene release is accomplished by a new nanophotonic remote optical device called Oligonucleotides on a Nanoplasmonic Carrier-based Optical Switch (ONCOS).
