Abstract: | During the development of structural DNA nanotechnology, the emerging of scaffolded DNA origami is marvelous. It utilizes DNA double helix inherent specificity of Watson‐Crick base pairing and structural features to create self‐assembling structures at the nanometer scale exhibiting the addressable character. However, the assembly of DNA origami is disorderly and unpredictable. Herein, we present a novel strategy to assemble the DNA origami using rolling circle amplification based DNA nanoribbons as the linkers. Firstly, long single‐stranded DNA from Rolling Circle Amplification is annealed with several staples to form kinds of DNA nanoribbons with overhangs. Subsequently, the rectangle origami is formed with overhanged staple strands at any edge that would hybridize with the DNA nanoribbons. By mixing them up, we illustrate the one‐dimensional even two‐dimensional assembly of DNA origami with good orientation. |
