Novel DNA materials and their applications

Abstract: The last two decades have witnessed the exponential development of DNA as a generic material instead of just a genetic material. The biological function, nanoscale geometry, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and molecular recognition capacity of DNA make it a promising candidate for the construction of novel functional nanomaterials. As a result, DNA has been recognized as one of the most appealing and versatile nanomaterial building blocks. Scientists have used DNA in this way to construct various amazing n… Show more

“…Further refinement is needed to (elevate/scale up) this technique to the industrial level. Research should be aimed at reducing cost and time of fabrication (Yang et al 2010). If these hurdles are effectively overcome, the real time applications of DNA nanostructures may be visible in the society.…”

“…Over the past two decades, the principles underlying nucleic acid structure and the polymeric characteristics of oligonucleotides have been exploited for synthesis of a variety of materials [1,2]. The precise alignment of DNA molecules by Watson-Crick basepairing has formed the basis of DNA-templated assembly of metal nanowires [3,4], conjugated polymers [5][6][7] and semiconductor nanoparticle assemblies [8].…”
