title: Hierarchical self-assembly of a biomimetic light-harvesting antenna based on DNA G-quadruplexes.
abstract: A new modular approach to an artificial light-harvesting antenna system is presented. The approach involves the hierarchical self-assembly of porphyrin acceptor molecules to G-quadruplexes tethered to coumarin donor moieties.
