  • Title: Chirality of silver nanoparticles synthesized on DNA.
    Author: Shemer G, Krichevski O, Markovich G, Molotsky T, Lubitz I, Kotlyar AB.
    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2006 Aug 30; 128(34):11006-7. PubMed ID: 16925401.
    Abstract:
    Silver nanocrystals grown on a poly(dG)-poly(dC) double stranded DNA scaffold displayed circular dichroism at their surface plasmon excitation band. This chiral plasmon signature was not observed in a control experiment where silver nanocrystals of similar size were produced without the DNA template and adsorbed to the DNA. It is concluded that the DNA templated Ag nanocrystals had a preferred structural handedness.
