Deskripsi

Nucleic acid-based materials are usually only compatible with aqueous solutions. Here, the authors show a structural nucleic acid nanotechnology using gamma-modified peptide nucleic acids that enables formation of solvent-compatible, self-assembling nanostructures defined by Watson-Crick base pairing.
