Abstract:
Nucleic acid nanotechnology takes advantage of the self-assembling property of nucleic acids to form a variety of shapes and structures. The incorporation of metal ions into these structures introduces functionality for sensor and molecular electronic applications. Here, we describe a protocol for the incorporation of silver ions into polygonal nanoshapes that self-assemble from RNA and DNA modules.
