Proofreading and error-correction in nanomaterials inspired by nature / PhysOrg, 18 Oct 2005

http://www.physorg.com/news7349.html
"Mimicking nature, a procedure developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign can find and correct defects in self-assembled nanomaterials. The new proofreading and error-removal process is based on catalytic DNA and represents a paradigm shift in nanoscale science and engineering."
