Abstract

Triplex DNA nanostructures are one of the most emerging and fascinating self-assembled nanostructures due to their unique nanoparticle-like organization and inherit characteristics. They have attracted numerous interests recently because of their versatile and powerful utility in diverse areas of science and technology, such as clinical or disease diagnosis and stimuli-based drug delivery. This review addresses particularly the utilization of DNA triplexes in the development of biosensors for detecting nucleic acid; strategies in sensing pH, protein activity, ions, or molecules. Finally, an outlook for potential applications of triplex DNA nanoswitches is provided.
