Chem Commun Exterior modification of a DNA tetrahedron Guan-song Wang (2010)
Self-assembly of a DNA tetrahedron with hairpin spikes. DNA single strands (L, M, and S) stepwisely assemble into symmetric 3-point-star motifs with hairpins (tiles) and then into a hairpin tetrahedron in a one-pot process. Note that there are three single stranded loops (colored red) in the center of the complex to introduce flexibility to the hairpin-modified 3-point-star motifs. The purple segment in the second strand will form short hairpin structures during self-assembly. All hairpins stretch out from the struts of the DNA tetrahedron (purple) near the vertices with a three-fold rotational symmetry.
ACS Nano DNA polyhedra with T-linkage Guan-song Wang (2012)
Self-assembly of spiked DNA polyhedra with T-junction linkages. (a) Formation of a structurally well defined T-junction that joins a bulged DNA duplex (red) and a duplex (blue) with 5-base single-stranded overhang. (b) Self-assembly of spiked DNA tetrahedra from starshaped DNA motifs (tiles). Each motif contains an Ln strand and n copies of P strands. At the peripheral end of each branch of the star motif, there is a complementary T-junction pair: a single-stranded, 5-base-long overhang and a 5-base-long internal loop. T-junction interactions among the individual tiles would lead to the formation of DNA polyhedra. Each vertex of the polyhedra will be a DNA star motif, and one component star tile in each polyhedron is highlighted red. (c) Detailed structure of a strut [highlighted golden in the polyhedra shown in (b)] of the T-linked DNA polyhedra. There is a T-junction on each component of the DNA duplex. (d) Strut structure of the previously assembled, sticky-ended DNA polyhedra2831 is shown for comparison.
Angew Chem Int Ed Controlling the chirality of DNA Nanocages Guan-song Wang (2012)
Self-assembly of chiral DNA triangular prisms out of asymmetric three-point-star motifs. a) Schematic representation of the asymmetric three-point-star motifs. C=blue/red; M1, M2, and M3=green; S1, S2, and S3=black; L1, L2, and L3=red. For each motif, the two top branches have complementary sticky ends (green and yellow) and the bottom branch has self-complementary sticky ends (cyan). b) Scheme of the resulting chiral triangular prisms. In each prism, one component motif is highlighted. Note that the motifs and their resulting prisms are designated by the loop lengths in nucleotides.

(b) Base stacking among the left-handed DNA duplexes leads to large aggregates (shown as an example). (c) Composition of one left handed DNA duplex studied here. It should be noted that the two component strands have identical sequences. (d) DNA sequences of the derived molecules. Mutated bases (red) introduce mismatches. In the names of the DNA strands, “2D” stands for two domains and “nT”indicates that the total number of extra T’s added is n.
Angew Chem Int Ed Directed self-assembly of DNA tiles into complex nanocages Guan-song Wang (2014)
Directed self-assembly of DNA tiles. a) A detailed structure (prepared from Tiamat[29]) of a 4-point-star motif (tile) that exemplifies all of the tiles used. It consists of one L4 strand (blue/red), four M strands (green), and four S strands (black). b) Simplified schemes of the assembly tiles (A-tiles) and directing tiles (D-tiles). An n-point-star tile for an A- or D-tile is termed An or Dn, respectively. For each tile, a simple scheme indicating all of the component strands (lines with the same color coding as in Figure 1a) and an even simpler ball and stick scheme are shown. The Dn tile has an n-fold rotational symmetry
and is assembled from three types of unique DNA strands: LDn, MD, and SD. The An tile has lower symmetry (an n 2-fold rotational symmetry) and is assembled from five types of DNA strands: LAn, MA1, MA2, SA1, and SA2. The sticky ends a/a’ are self-complementary and b and b’ are complementary to each other. c) A chart of the component tiles and the resulting DNA cages.

Self-assembly of RNA nanoprisms I and II by re-engineering pRNA. (a) Secondary structure of the wild-type pRNA (packaging RNA of bacteriophage phi29). CE- and D-loops can interact with each other via the highlighted, complementary bases (red and golden). (b) Re-engineered pRNA molecules: shortened A-helix with a self-complementary sticky-end (green) and mutated CE- and D-loops (red and golden). (c) A 3D model of pRNA mutants. (d) Four pairs of complementary sequences used for the interacting loops of the pRNA mutants. Self-assembly of (e) a triangular RNA prism (I) and (f) a tetragonal prism (II). pRNAs can bind to each other through both loop–loop interaction and sticky-end cohesion. The mutant pRNAs are named according to the interacting loop sequence; for example, pRNA a–b0 has sequences a at CE-loop (red bases) and b0 at D-loop (golden bases).

end on E-helix.
Nat Commun De novo design of an-RNA tile that self-assembles into a homo-octameric nanoprism Guan-song Wang (2015)
Self-assembly of a de novo designed RNA tile into a homooctameric prism. (a) Sequence and secondary structure of the design, twostranded RNA tile (R1–R2). All structural elements (three duplex regions Pa, Pb and Pc; two tails Ta and Tc; two internal bulges loops Lab and Lbc) are indicated. Note that Ta (yellow) and Lab (yellow) are complementary to each other and Tc (red) is self complementary. (b) A detailed scheme of a T-junction structure formed by hybridization between a Ta tail and Lab loop. Both are coloured yellow. The black and yellow lines represent the RNA backbones and the short grey lines represent base pairs. (c) Selfoligomerization of the RNA tile. The tile can tetramerize into tetrameric square via T-junction formation (Ta–Lab hetero-hybridization) and dimerize via sticky-end cohesion (Tc–Tc hybridization). The two types of interactions together lead to the formation of an octameric nanoprism. For both the square and prism, a top view and a near side view are
shown. The structural models were prepared with a computer program Coot. (d) A 2D diagram showing the connectivity of the tiles. Each tile contains two strands represented by a thick line and a thin line, which share the same colour.

B) The as-prepared cationic CDs mediate the Mg2+-free, isothermal self-assembly of DNA NP. P1 hybridizes with P2 or P3 to form a triangle-shaped structure. Two triangles dimerize into a prism by base-pairing of two intruding segments of P2 and P3. NPNCDK was obtained by mixing KRAS siRNA and NP at a molar ratio of 6:1.
