tailor‐made DNAs have been an interesting material for such designed nanoscale constructions. However, the synthesis of specific structures with a desired molecular function is still in its infancy and therefore has to be further explored. To add a new dimension to this approach, we have synthesized a rigid three‐way branched adamantane motif, which is capable of forming highly stable DNA networks. The moiety
除某些病毒外,DNA支配着所有生命系统中世代相传的遗传信息的存储和转移。它的物理化学性质和Watson-Crick碱基配对特性允许在纳米级构建分子,从而实现所需结构基序的设计,这些基序可以自组装以形成大的超分子阵列和支架。对于这种设计的纳米级结构,量身定制的DNA是一种有趣的材料。但是,具有所需分子功能的特定结构的合成仍处于起步阶段,因此必须进一步探索。为了给这种方法增加新的维度,我们合成了一个刚性的三向分支金刚烷基序,该基序能够形成高度稳定的DNA网络。
