With the development of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) nanotechnology, various DNA nanostructures and DNA devices have been constructed, which exhibit potential applications in material science and biomedicine. Taking advantage of the programmability and biocompatibility of DNA, novel building block to chemically functionalize DNA with hydrophobic organic molecules has attracted more and more attention. Driving by amphiphilicity, DNA‐organic molecular amphiphiles have been demonstrated to self‐assemble or further induce hierarchically assemblies, providing novel‐specific properties. In this minireview, we summarize the recent progress of DNA organic molecular amphiphiles including their synthesis, self‐assembly behavior in aqueous solution, and the amphiphilic self‐assembly based on hierarchical DNA nano‐structures. We further briefly discuss the perspective of the application of the DNA‐organic molecular amphiphiles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
