DNA mechanical technology has been widely concerned and deeply studied in recent years. Mechanical DNA devices have been enabled by the unique molecular structure and physical and chemical properties of DNA. More complex mechanical behavior or function can be achieved by designing more elaborate mechanisms. DNA mechanical technology has played important role in studies of the fundamental properties of the biomolecules that sense, transmit, and generate pN forces. Studies of the mechanics of these biomolecules are essential to revealing their functions. Here, we reviewed the latest progress in the study of DNA mechanical technology. First, the mechanical basis of DNA was briefly described. Especially several types of mechanical DNA devices were focused on. Finally, the challenges and prospects of DNA mechanical technology were discussed.
