Ribbon of DNA Lattice on Gold Nanoparticles for Selective Drug Delivery to Cancer Cells

Abstract

Herein, we report on the design of a programmable DNA ribbon using long-chain DNA molecules with a user-defined repetitive padlock sequence. The DNA ribbon can be further combined with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to create a composite nanomaterial that contains an AuNP core and a high-density DNA crown carrying a cancer-cell-targeting DNA aptamer, a fluorescent tag for location tracking, and a cell-killing drug. This composite material can be …
