Functional evolution on the assembled DNA template.
After more than twenty years of effort, using DNA to fabricate addressable nanostructures is now a well-established technology. In this tutorial review, we attempt to present an overview of the applications of DNA templates, including its biological significance, the directing of chemical reactions at the molecular level, as well as the placing of nanoparticles and proteins in position.
