tilibit nanosystems GmbH is a startup in the field of DNA nanotechnology. We offer DNA nanotechnology materials and develop novel DNA nanostructure products based on the DNA origami technology. This technology enables building discrete objects with user-defined shapes and mechanical properties on the scale of 10 to 1000 nanometers from the bottom-up. These objects are similar in scale to natural macromolecular particles that are found inside and outside of living cells. User-defined chemical and mechanical features can be positioned with near-atomical control, and DNA origami objects can be assembled into macroscopic materials with novel mechanical or optical properties. Because of these capabilities, DNA origami is an enabling technology that creates new and unparalleled opportunities toward the construction of "bionano" products that promise tremendous technological progress in areas such as biology, chemistry, physics, nanotechnology, and health care.
