Creating new functional building blocks that expand the versatility of nanostructures depends on bottom-up self-assembly of amphiphilic biomolecules. Inspired by the unique physicochemical properties of hydrophobic perfluorocarbons, coupled with the powerful functions of nucleic acids, we herein report the synthesis of a series of diperfluorodecyl-DNA conjugates (PF-DNA) which can efficiently self-assemble into micelles in aqueous solution. On the basis of the micelle structure, both target bind ...[more]
