Abstract
Understanding the patterns of noncovalent adsorption of double-stranded nucleic acids (dsDNA) on gold nanoparticles (GNPs) was the aim of this study. It was found that the high-affinity motifs in DNA can and do act as an “anchor” for the fixation of the whole molecule on the GNP (up to 98 ± 2 single-stranded (ss)DNA molecules per particle with diameter of 13 ± 2 nm). At the same time, the involvement of an “anchor” in the intramolecular DNA interaction can negatively affect the efficiency of the formation of ss(ds)DNA–GNP structures. It has been shown that the interaction of GNP with DNA duplexes is accompanied by their dissociation and competitive adsorption of ssDNAs on GNP, wherein the crucial factor of DNA adsorption efficiency is the intrinsic affinity of ssDNA to GNP. We propose a detailed scheme for the interaction of dsDNA with GNPs, which should be taken into account in studies of this type. Researchers focused on this field should accept the complicated nature of such objects and take into account the many competing processes, including the processes of adsorption and desorption of DNA on gold as well as the formation of secondary structures by individual DNA strands.
