Fig. 3From: Hybrid material of structural DNA with inorganic compound: synthesis, applications, and perspective(Reproduced with permission [49])a Alignment of gold nanoparticles using a variety of DNA nanostructures. Branched DNA nanomaterials [44], DNA tiles [45], and DNA tubes [46] were used for the ordered alignment. Reproduced with permission. b Targeted delivery of gold nanorods using triangular DNA origami. Targeted delivery has enabled an optoacoustic imaging and a photothermal therapy.
