<p> For this shape to be manufactured, manual assembly will be needed. The way in which the cubes will be bound is illustrated by this picture. However due to the size of each cube, there will be significantly less zinc finger binding to each cube than in the picture. | <p> For this shape to be manufactured, manual assembly will be needed.

+ | <p> The sizes are only approximations and they assume that the E-coli cells bind orthogonally to each other. They also only estimate the smallest size the structure could be to allow 6 cells to bind to it. In reality the structure would probably have to be much larger. The largest problem is that this method requires a lot of manual assembly which may be very expensive. | ||
