Abstract

Structural DNA nanotechnology is an emerging field and is expected to be used for various applications in materials science. In this study, we designed a DNA tensegrity triangle to accommodate the bipyridine complexes with metal ions (Ni2+ and Fe2+) at the center of the space within the triangle. A metal-bipyridine-incorporated DNA tensegrity triangle was crystalized, and the presence of metals within it was confirmed through X-ray crystal structure analysis. A signal of the anomalous dispersion effect derived from metal was observed in the center of the DNA triangle.
