Abstract

Heterogeneous nanoclusters with trimeric and core–shell architectures containing nanoparticles of different size and composition have been fabricated via site-specific PNA-“invasion” of DNA double helix. This novel strategy facilitates the incorporation of double-stranded DNA into the nanoparticle assembly design.
