End-to-end assembly of goldnanorods by means of oligonucleotide–mercury(ii) molecular recognition

Abstract

We report a novel, simple, highly selective and versatile approach for the end-to-end assembly of gold nanorods (GNRs) by means of the specific molecular recognition between thymine-rich (T-rich) oligonucleotides and mercury(II).
