Abstract
Nanoparticle assemblies with interparticle ohmic contacts are crucial for nanodevice fabrication. Despite tremendous progress in DNA-programmable nanoparticle assemblies, seamlessly welding discrete components into welded continuous three-dimensional (3D) configurations remains challenging. Here, we introduce a single-stranded DNA-encoded strategy to customize welded metal nanostructures with tunable morphologies and plasmonic properties. We demonstrate the precise welding of gold nanoparticle assemblies into continuous metal nanostructures with interparticle ohmic contacts through chemical welding in solution. We find that the welded gold nanoparticle assemblies show a consistent morphology with welded efficiency over 90%, such as the rod-like, triangular, and tetrahedral metal nanostructures. Next, we show the versatility of this strategy by welding gold nanoparticle assemblies of varied sizes and shapes. Furthermore, the experiment and simulation show that the welded gold nanoparticle assemblies exhibit defined plasmonic coupling. This single-stranded DNA encoded welding system may provide a new route for accurately building functional plasmonic nanomaterials and devices.

Nucleic acids are considered as promising materials for developing exquisite nanostructures from one to three dimensions. The advances of DNA nanotechnology facilitate ingenious design of DNA nanostructures with diverse shapes and sizes. Especially, the algebraic topological framework nucleic acids (ATFNAs) are functional DNA nanostructures that engineer guest molecules (e. g., nucleic acids, proteins, small molecules, and nanoparticles) stoichiometrically and spatially. The intrinsic precise properties and tailorable functionalities of ATFNAs hold great promise for biological applications, such as cell recognition and immunotherapy.

Abstract
The metal plasmonic nanostructure has the optical property of plasmon resonance, which holds great potential for development in nanophotonics, bioelectronics, and molecular detection. However, developing a general and straightforward method to prepare metal plasmonic nanostructures with a controllable size and morphology still poses a challenge. Herein, we proposed a synthesis strategy that utilized a customizable self-assembly template for shape-directed growth of metal structures. We employed gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as connectors and DNA nanotubes as branches, customizing gold nanoparticle-DNA origami composite nanostructures with different branches by adjusting the assembly ratio between the connectors and branches. Subsequently, various morphologies of plasmonic metal nanostructures were created using this template shape guided strategy, which exhibited enhancement of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signals. This strategy provides a new approach for synthesizing metallic nanostructures with multiple morphologies and opens up another possibility for the development of customizable metallic plasmonic structures with broader applications.

Abstract
High-fidelity patterning of DNA origami nanostructures on various interfaces holds great potential for nanoelectronics and nanophotonics. However, distortion of a DNA origami often occurs due to the strong interface interactions, e.g., on two-dimensional (2D) materials. In this study, we discovered that the adsorption of silica precursors in rapid silicification can prevent the distortion caused by graphene and generates a high shape-fidelity DNA origami-silica composite on a graphene interface. We found that an incubation time of 1 min and silicification time of 16 h resulted in the formation of DNA origami-silica composites with the highest shape fidelity of 99%. By comparing the distortion of the DNA origami on the graphene interface with and without silicification, we observed that rapid silicification effectively preserved the integrity of the DNA origami. Statistical analysis of scanning electron microscopy data indicates that compared to bare DNA origami, the DNA origami-silica composite has an increased shape fidelity by more than two folds. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations revealed that rapid silicification effectively suppresses the distortion of the DNA origami through the interhelical insertion of silica precursors. Our strategy provides a simple yet effective solution to maintain the shape-fidelity DNA origami on interfaces that have strong interaction with DNA molecules, expanding the applicable interfaces for patterning 2D DNA origamis.

Abstract
Generally, two-dimensional gold nanomaterials have unique properties and functions that offer exciting application prospects. However, the crystal phases of these materials tend to be limited to the thermodynamically stable crystal structure. Herein, we report a DNA framework-templated approach for the ambient aqueous synthesis of freestanding and microscale amorphous gold nanosheets with ultrathin sub-nanometer thickness. We observe that extended single-stranded DNA on DNA nanosheets can induce site-specific metallization and enable precise modification of the metalized nanostructures at predefined positions. More importantly, the as-prepared gold nanosheets can serve as an electrocatalyst for glucose oxidase-catalyzed aerobic oxidation, exhibiting enhanced electrocatalytic activity (~3-fold) relative to discrete gold nanoclusters owing to a larger electrochemical active area and wider band gap. The proposed DNA framework-templated metallization strategy is expected to be applicable in a broad range of fields, from catalysis to new energy materials.

Abstract
Nanostructures with controlled shapes are of particular interest due to their consistent physical and chemical properties and their potential for assembly into complex superstructures. The use of supporting struts has proven to be effective in the construction of precise DNA polyhedra. However, the influence of struts on the structure of DNA origami frameworks on the nanoscale remains unclear. In this study, we developed a flexible square DNA origami (SDO) framework and enhanced its structural stability by incorporating interarm supporting struts (SDO-s). Comparing the framework with and without such struts, we found that SDO-s demonstrated a significantly improved resistance to deformation. We assessed the deformability of these two DNA origami structures through the statistical analysis of interior angles of polygons based on atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy data. Our results showed that SDO-s exhibited more centralized interior angle distributions compared to SDO, reducing from 30-150° to 60-120°. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations indicated that supporting struts significantly decreased the thermodynamic fluctuations of the SDO-s, as described by the root-mean-square fluctuation parameter. Finally, we experimentally demonstrated that the 2D arrays assembled from SDO-s exhibited significantly higher quality than those assembled from SDO. These quantitative analyses provide an understanding of how supporting struts can enhance the structural integrity of DNA origami frameworks.

Abstract
DNA origami has been used as biotemplates for growing a range of inorganic materials to create novel organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterials. Recently, the solution-based silicification of DNA has been used to grow thin silica shells on DNA origami. However, the silicification reaction is sensitive to the reaction conditions and often results in uncontrolled DNA origami aggregation, especially when growth of thicker silica layers is desired. Here, we investigated how site-specifically placed polynucleotide brushes influence the silicification of DNA origami. Our experiments showed that long DNA brushes, in the form of single- or double-stranded DNA, significantly suppress the aggregation of DNA origami during the silicification process. Furthermore, we found that double-stranded DNA brushes selectively promote silica growth on DNA origami surfaces. These observations were supported and explained by coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations. This work provides new insights into our understanding of the silicification process on DNA and provides a powerful toolset for the development of novel DNA-based organic-inorganic nanomaterials.

Abstract
Biomineralization is an attractive pathway to produce mineral-based biomaterials with high performance and hierarchical structures. To date, the biomineralization process and mechanism have been extensively studied, especially for the formation of bone, teeth, and nacre. Inspired by those, abundant biomimetic mineralized materials have been fabricated for biomedical applications. Those bioinspired materials generally exhibit great mechanical properties and biological functions. Nevertheless, substantial gaps remain between biomimetic materials and natural materials, particularly with respect to mechanical properties and mutiscale structures. This Review summarizes the recent progress of micro- and macroscopic biomimetic mineralization from the perspective of materials synthesis and biomedical applications. To begin with, we discuss the progress of biomimetic mineralization at the microscopic level. The mechanical strength, stability, and functionality of the nano- and micromaterials are significantly improved by introducing biominerals, such as DNA nanostructures, nanovaccines, and living cells. Next, numerous biomimetic strategies based on biomineralization at the macroscopic scale are highlighted, including in situ mineralization and bottom-up assembly of mineralized building blocks. Finally, challenges and future perspectives regarding the development of biomimetic mineralization are also presented with the aim of offering insights for the rational design and fabrication of next-generation biomimetic mineralized materials.

Abstract
Tile-based DNA self-assembly is a cost-effective fabrication method for large-scale nanopatterns. Herein, we report a protocol to directly assemble DNA 2D arrays on silicon wafers and then use the DNA nanostructures as molds to fabricate the corresponding nanostructures on the silicon wafers by hydrogen fluoride (HF) etching. Similar HF etching has been used with robust large DNA origami structures as templates. This work demonstrates that DNA nanostructures assembled from small tiles are sufficiently stable for this process. The resulting feature size (∼8.6 nm) approaches the sizes of e-beam lithography. While the reported method is parallel and inexpensive, e-beam lithography is a serial method and is expensive. We expect that this method will be very useful for preparing fine nanopatterns in large areas.

Abstract
How far we can push chemical self-assembly is one of the most important scientific questions of the century. Colloidal self-assembly is a bottom-up technique for the rational design of functional materials with desirable collective properties. Due to the programmability of DNA base pairing, surface modification of colloidal particles with DNA has become fundamental for programmable material self-assembly. However, there remains an ever-lasting demand for surface regioselective encoding to realize assemblies that require specific, directional, and orthogonal interactions. Recent advances in surface chemistry have enabled regioselective control over the formation of DNA bonds on the particle surface. In particular, the structural DNA nanotechnology provides a simple yet powerful design strategy with unique regioselective addressability, bringing the complexity of colloidal self-assembly to an unprecedented level. In this review, we summarize the state-of-art advances in DNA-mediated regioselective surface encoding of colloids, with a focus on how the regioselective encoding is introduced and how the regioselective DNA recognition plays a crucial role in the self-assembly of colloidal structures. This review highlights the advantages of DNA-based regioselective modification in improving the complexity of colloidal assembly, and outlines the challenges and opportunities for the construction of more complex architectures with tailored functionalities.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology is a unique field, where physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, engineering, and materials science can elegantly converge. Since the original proposal of Nadrian Seeman, significant advances have been achieved in the past four decades. During this glory time, the DNA origami technique developed by Paul Rothemund further pushed the field forward with a vigorous momentum, fostering a plethora of concepts, models, methodologies, and applications that were not thought of before. This review focuses on the recent progress in DNA origami-engineered nanomaterials in the past five years, outlining the exciting achievements as well as the unexplored research avenues. We believe that the spirit and assets that Seeman left for scientists will continue to bring interdisciplinary innovations and useful applications to this field in the next decade.

Abstract
Atom manufacturing has become a blooming frontier direction in the field of material and chemical science in recent years, focusing on the fabrication of functional materials and devices with individual atoms or with atomic precision. Framework nucleic acids (FNAs) refer to nanoscale nucleic acid framework structures with novel properties distinct from those of conventional nucleic acids. Due to their ability to be precisely positioned and assembled at the nanometer or even atomic scale, FNAs are ideal materials for atom manufacturing. They hold great promise for the bottom-up construction of electronic devices by precisely arranging and integrating building blocks with atomic or near-atomic precision. In this review, we summarize the progress of atom manufacturing based on FNAs. We begin by introducing the atomic-precision construction of FNAs and the intrinsic electrical properties of DNA molecules. Then, we describe various approaches for the fabrication of FNAs templated materials and devices, which are classified as conducting, insulating, or semiconducting based on their electrical properties. We highlight the role of FNAs in the fabrication of functional electronic devices with atomic precision, as well as the challenges and opportunities for atom manufacturing with FNAs.
