(A) Schematics of serum degradation. DNA linkers mediate assembly of GNP-DNA into supramolecular structures. Incubation with serum causes assembly breakdown into individual component nanoparticles followed by the degradation of surface-immobilized DNA. Various parameters and mechanisms determine the rate of this process. (B) Experimental setup. PAGE band patterns corresponding to different degradation mechanisms are indicated (A).
