Mimicking biological process, hydrogel signals and releases proteins

Mimicking biological process, hydrogel signals and releases proteins 11/02/2017 10:24 AM EDT An artificial system using a DNA-laced hydrogel can receive a chemical signal and release the appropriate protein, according to Penn State researchers. Further stimulation by the chemical signal continues to trigger a response.
