DNA is traditionally known as a central genetic biomolecule in living systems. From an
alternative perspective, DNA is a versatile molecular building-block for the construction of …

This review provides an overview of recent developments in “chemical virology.” Viruses, as
materials, provide unique nanoscale scaffolds that have relevance in chemical biology and …

Self-assembled DNA nanostructures enable nanometre-precise patterning that can be used
to create programmable molecular machines,,,, and arrays of functional materials,,. DNA …

We describe a simple and robust method to construct complex three-dimensional (3D)
structures by using short synthetic DNA strands that we call “DNA bricks.” In one-step …

Programmed self-assembly of strands of nucleic acid has proved highly effective for creating
a wide range of structures with desired shapes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,. A particularly successful …

DNA molecules have been used to build a variety of nanoscale structures and devices over
the past 30 years, and potential applications have begun to emerge. But the development of …

Abstract 'Bottom-up fabrication', which exploits the intrinsic properties of atoms and
molecules to direct their self-organization, is widely used to make relatively simple …

DNA nanotechnology, and particularly DNA origami, in which long, single-stranded DNA
molecules are folded into predetermined shapes, can be used to form complex self …

An important goal of nanotechnology is to assemble multiple molecules while controlling the
spacing between them. Of particular interest is the phenomenon of multivalency, which is …

Scaffolded DNA origami has proven to be a versatile method for generating functional
nanostructures with prescribed sub-100 nm shapes. Programming DNA-origami tiles to form …
