We reimagined the successful DNA origami design principle using a set of custom staple proteins to fold a double-stranded DNA template into a user-defined shape. Each staple protein recognizes two distinct double-helical DNA sequences and can carry additional functionalities. The staple proteins we present here are based on the transcription activator-like (TAL) effector proteins. Due to their repetitive structure these proteins offer a unique programmability that enables us to construct numerous staple proteins targeting any desired DNA sequence. Our approach is general, meaning that many different objects may be created using the same set of rules, and it is modular, because components can be modified or exchanged individually. We present rules for constructing megadalton-scale DNA-protein hybrid nanostructures; introduce important structural motifs, such as curvature, corners, and vertices; describe principles for creating multi-layer DNA-protein objects with enhanced rigidity; and demonstrate the possibility to combine our DNA-protein hybrid origami with conventional DNA nanotechnology. Since all components can be encoded genetically, our structures should be amenable to biotechnological mass-production. Moreover, since the target objects can self-assemble at room temperature in near-physiological buffer, our hybrid origami may also provide an attractive method to realize positioning and scaffolding tasks in vivo. We expect our method to find application both in scaffolding protein functionalities and in manipulating the spatial arrangement of genomic DNA."}],"publication":"Biophysical Journal","publication_status":"published","_id":"14308","author":[{"last_name":"Praetorius","id":"dfec9381-4341-11ee-8fd8-faa02bba7d62","full_name":"Praetorius, Florian M","first_name":"Florian M"},{"last_name":"Dietz","full_name":"Dietz, Hendrik","first_name":"Hendrik"}],"doi":"10.1016/j.bpj.2016.11.171","keyword":["Biophysics"],"date_published":"2017-02-03T00:00:00Z","day":"03","article_type":"original","year":"2017","publisher":"Elsevier","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"intvolume":"       112","oa_version":"None","issue":"3","quality_controlled":"1","scopus_import":"1","title":"Genetically encoded DNA-protein hybrid origami"}
