The present invention concerns the field of nanoparticle bioconjugates which form an i-motif or an i-motif related structure (compositions) without or with at least one further nucleic acid binding compound. The i-motif base pairs can be charged or non-charged. Their assembly can be controlled by the pH value or temperature. At least one of these nucleic acid binding compounds has to be attached at least to a nanoparticle. The methods provide compositions used for DNA driven programmable nanoparticle assemblies, electronic circuits, diagnostic detection tools, biosensors, memory storage devices, diagnostic devices for biomolecule sequencing and detection, drug delivery, application in tumour diagnostics and treatment, nanomachines, nanofabrication, nanocatalysis, nanoarrays, and nanoscaled enzyme reactors.
本发明涉及纳米颗粒生物共轭物的领域,其形成了一个i-结构或与i-结构相关的结构(组成物),没有或至少有一种进一步的核酸结合化合物。i-结构碱基对可以带电或不带电。它们的组装可以通过pH值或温度进行控制。这些核酸结合化合物中至少有一种必须至少附着在一个纳米颗粒上。该方法提供了用于DNA驱动的可编程纳米颗粒组装、电子电路、诊断检测工具、生物传感器、存储器设备、用于生物分子测序和检测的诊断设备、药物传递、应用于肿瘤诊断和治疗、纳米机器、纳米制造、纳米催化、纳米阵列和纳米级酶反应器的组成物。
