DNA Quadruple Helices in Nanotechnology

DNA has played an early and powerful role in the development of bottom-up nanotechnologies, not least because of DNA’s precise, predictable, and controllable properties of assembly on the nanometer scale. Watson–Crick complementarity has been used to build complex 2D and 3D architectures and design a number of nanometer-scale systems for molecular computing, transport, motors, and biosensing applications. Most of such devices are built with...
