We describe a rapid and quantitative method to generate DNA cages of deliberately designed geometry from readily available starting strands. Balancing the incorporation of sequence uniqueness and symmetry in a face-centered approach to 3D construction can result in triangular (TP), rectangular (RP), and pentagonal prisms (PP) without compromising the potential for nanostructure addressability.
我们描述了一种快速定量的方法,可从现成的起始链中生成具有故意设计的几何形状的 DNA 笼。在面心方法的 3D 构建中平衡序列独特性和对称性的结合,可以得到三角形 (TP)、矩形 (RP) 和五边形棱柱 (PP),而不会影响纳米结构可寻址性的潜力。
