Abstract

Compositions and methods are provided for constructing multi-functional nucleic acid nano-structures. Nano-structures are provided incorporating a built-in modularity, including nucleic acid modules. Modules contain moieties including detectible labels, nanoparticles, reactive moieties and other functional groups. Nano-structures can be used for delivery of target compounds, as well as identification of target nucleic acid molecules.
