Controlled polymerization and self-assembly of a supramolecular star polymer with a guanosine quadruplex core.
A novel supramolecular star polymer is reported, which can be prepared either from atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of a self-assembled initiator or from self-assembly of a guanosine-capped linear polymer.
