Abstract

The combination of DNA-origami and synthetic polymers paves the way to a new class of structurally precise biohybrid nanomaterials for diverse applications. Herein, we introduce the grafting to method with high conversions (70-90%) under ambient conditions to generate DNA-polymer conjugates, which can hybridized precisely to DNA-origami architectures. We generated homo and block copolymers from three different polymer families (acrylates, methacrylates and acrylamides), coupled them to single stranded DNA (ssDNA) and pattern different DNA-origami architectures to demonstrate the formation of precise surface nanopatterns.
