(a) pRNA hexamers designed and formed through intermolecular hand-in-hand interactions among 6 pieces of pRNAs19,21,61,64,65. Adapted with permission from Ref.19 © 2013 RNA Society. (b) RNA hexagonal nano-ring designed and formed through RNAI/II kissing complexes70. Adapted with permission from Ref.70 © 2011 American Chemical Society. (c) RNA hexamers designed and formed through linking six triangles formed from pRNA-3WJ with helixes, constructing a supramolecular pattern resembling honeycombs.
