2 STATUS QUO NEW INSIGHTS Elucidating the molecular dynamics, conformations, and interactions occurring in complex entangled biopolymer systems via novel single-molecule techniques END-OF-PHASE GOAL QUANTITATIVE IMPACT Bulk Rheology Most experimental studies on polymeric fluids are bulk studies unable to determine molecular dynamics and interactions underlying measured properties No concrete predictions for tunability Synthetic Linear Polymers theory/experiment largely developed for monodisperse linear polymers (not ideal for industry) ring polymers (valuable material properties) difficult to synthesize polymer blends not well understood DNA: ideal polymer platform replication/purification: reproducibility, exact known lengths/topologies of polymers Ring DNA Reliable feasible preparation Molecular-Level Dynamics of Ring-Linear DNA Blends Molecular diffusion of ring and linear DNA in entangled ring-linear blends: complex dependence on species fraction, wide parameter space for tunability MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS: Comprehensive molecular-level characterization of molecular diffusion in ring-linear DNA blends fluorescence microscopy, single-molecule tracking used to measure selfdiffusion of ring and linear DNA in ring-linear blends simulations mimicking experimental conditions used to determine theoretical basis for findings determined dependence of self-diffusion on fraction of linear species in blend (f L ), solution concentration, molecular length Dual-function fluorescence force-measuring dual-trap optical tweezers to probe molecular-level material response instrument has been built and calibrated Preliminary microrheology techniques/assays have been developed HOW IT WORKS: diffusion measurements: single-particle tracking of labeled purified DNA molecules via fluorescence microscopy and custom-written software tightly-focused infrared laser, optical, electronic and piezoelectric components form optical trap around fluorescence microscope Current Impact previously unknown complex dependence of linear DNA diffusion in ring-linear blends revealed theoretical basis for molecular mechanisms for tunability of material properties instrumentation development to link molecular-level deformation to induced force Planned Impact characterization of bilinear DNA blends molecular-level stress-strain relationships between deformation to induced force in DNA blends Research Goals develop novel molecular-scale stress-strain transducing and sensing technique employing fluorescence microscopy and force-measuring optical tweezers to elucidate molecular dynamics and intermolecular forces governing material properties of entangled DNA blends Connect molecular dynamics to macroscopic properties of entangled polymer systems
3 Biopolymer Dynamics to Material Properties Systems of entangled biopolymers, such as DNA: display COMPLEX and USEFUL viscoelastic properties Properties vary widely with LENGTHS and TOPOLOGIES of molecules excellent platform for NEW multifunctional, TUNABLE, dynamic MATERIALS To effectively harness intriguing bulk properties essential to elucidate molecular dynamics and interactions that give rise to them
4 Barriers to Progress Entangled biopolymer systems that exhibit the most INTRIGUING and USEFUL properties consist of BLENDS of polymers of different lengths and/or topologies theoretical and experimental PROGRESS has focused on MONODISPERSE systems of LINEAR polymers Most experiments: BULK studies underlying molecular mechanisms only inferred via theoretical predictions To effectively harness intriguing bulk properties essential to elucidate molecular dynamics and interactions that give rise to them
5 GOAL 1 GOAL 2 GOAL 3 Program Goals Measure self-diffusion coefficients for single DNA molecules in ring-linear and bilinear DNA blends using fluorescence microscopy and particle-tracking. Quantify dependence of diffusion on molecular length and topology, solution concentration, and fraction of the two species comprising the blend. Develop novel approach and instrumentation that combines optical tweezers and fluorescence microscopy to measure forces resisting displacement of single entangled DNA molecules while simultaneously imaging conformations and dynamics of individual surrounding molecules to allow for direct probing of molecular interactions, stress and strain occurring in real-time at the singlemolecule level. Apply Goal 2 technique to study molecular interactions and dynamics governing entangled ring-linear and bi-linear DNA blends to determine (1) the properties of the tube-like molecular confining field, (2) the forces resisting linear and nonlinear strains, (3) the spectrum of relaxation time constants following displacement, and (4) induced strains, conformations and dynamics of the surrounding molecules. Dependence on molecular length and topology, solution concentration, and fraction of two blend species will be studied and compared with theoretical predictions.
6 Progress towards Achieving Goals GOAL 1 COMPLETED DIFFUSION MEASUREMENTS for ring-linear DNA blends NEW: Simulations of ring-linear DNA diffusion measurements carried out to determine theoretical description of molecular dynamics Currently conducting experiments/simulations with bi-linear DNA blends GOAL 2 Dual function fluorescence force-measuring dual-trap optical tweezers HAS BEEN BUILT Biochemical assays are currently being developed for proposed method NEW: Additional microrheology measurement techniques are being developed NEW: Linear oscillatory microrheology measurements carried out for entangled linear DNA GOAL 3 Goal 2 must be completed before starting Goal 3
7 Transformational: Impact on Field Systems of entangled biopolymers, such as DNA, display complex and useful viscoelastic properties which are highly dependent on the lengths and topologies of the molecules, making these systems an excellent platform for new multifunctional, dynamic materials. To effectively harness these intriguing bulk properties, it is essential to elucidate the molecular dynamics and interactions that give rise to them. However, most experiments investigating entangled polymers have been bulk studies probing material properties, so the underlying molecular mechanisms could only be inferred via theoretical predictions that relate the two. By using DNA and novel single-molecule techniques, we can directly probe molecular dynamics, conformations and interactions, thereby directly testing theoretical predictions and elucidating the connections between the molecular and macroscopic dynamics of entangled polymer systems. As such, this research will fill a long-standing gap in knowledge regarding these highly important and poorly understood systems.
