Melting temperatures for nanoparticle assemblies with various linker DNA defects. The melting temperature for analogous sequences of free DNA is always lower with the presence of defects, whereas the melting temperature of surface-attached DNA sometimes increases when there is a defect in DNA base-pairing.
