Schematic illustration of the multifunctional self-assembled nanoassembly building units and photocrosslinked nanoassembly structure. Multifunctional DNA sequences, including aptamers, acrydite-modified single-stranded DNA and antisense oligonucleotides are self-assembled to form Y-shaped functional domains, which further link via X-shaped connectors to form building units through the complementary arm sequences. Hundreds of these basic building units are then photocrosslinked into a multifunctional and programmable nanoassembly structure.
