Abstract
Daring to be different: Chiral DNA junctions with a transition metal at the branch point and four different DNA single-stranded arms were assembled by a combination of DNA templating and metal coordination in an approach that enabled chirality transfer from DNA to the metal center (see picture). The intrinsic chirality of the junctions and their information density make them effective building blocks for 3D metal-DNA structures. © 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
