Abstract

DNA can be programmed to assemble into various nanostructures. However, it is challenging to assemble DNA nanostructures with well-defined sizes out of a minimal set of DNA strands. One potential approach is to apply structural symmetry to reduce the number of component DNA strands and allow multiple copies of the same components to assemble into nanostructures. As a demonstration, Q.-F. Dong, C. Mao, and co-workers (page 855) use this strategy to assemble a series of DNA nanotubes with different diameters and lengths.
