Increasing the Complexity of Periodic Protein Nanostructures by the Rolling‐Circle‐Amplified Synthesis of Aptamers

Abstract

The biomachinery of rolling-circle amplification relying on protein–aptamer interactions on DNA scaffolds was used to create one-dimensional DNA–protein/DNA–protein–nanoparticle hierarchical assemblies. These conjugates can serve as further templates for the immobilization of gold nanoparticles.
