Abstract

Biomolecules are promising templates that play important roles in controlling the supramolecular assembly process more flexibly and precisely due to their unique characteristic structures. Here we first present a G-quadruplex with a chair-like antiparallel motif as a novel dual-functional regulation template in the aggregation of a cyanine dye.
