title: A DNA-templated catalyst: the preparation of metal-DNA nanohybrids and their application in organic reactions.
abstract: Different kinds of metal-DNA nanohybrids are synthesized from cheap natural DNA on a large scale. These air-stable M-DNA nanohybrids maintain the advantages of both DNA and the metal nanoparticles, which exhibit reversible solubility and high catalytic activities. Moreover, the M-DNA nanohybrids could be easily reused for several cycles.
