The article entitled "Precision Polymers and 3D DNA Nanostructures: Emergent
Assemblies from New Parameter Space鈥� has been chosen by the editors of JACS as a Spotlight entitled:

"COMPLEX FUNCTIONALITY FROM DNA BOXES AND POLYMER SNAKES"

In this paper, the group attached polymers听 containing a precise number of hydrophobic units to specific positions of a DNA prismatic cage.听 By doing this, they obtained new structures and properties unavailable from either material individually, such as small 鈥榪uantized鈥� groups of DNA cages, and 鈥楧NA cube micelles鈥� with potential applications in drug delivery and light harvesting.听 The first author of this manuscript is Dr. Chris Serpell, a Banting postdoctoral fellow, and the co-authors are PhD students Tom Edwardson (recipient of a CIHR DDTP fellowship), Pongphak Chidchob (recipient of a NSERC CREATE Bionanomachines fellowship) and Dr. Karina Carneiro (currently a postdoc at UCSF).
