Diatom-like nanostructures created using base-pairing properties of DNA
A team of researchers designed a range of diatom-like nanostructures, using base-pairing properties of DNA to construct tiny structures that accumulated a silica outer skeleton similar to shell-building organisms known as diatoms.
