Here, we present a detailed study on the room-temperature assembly of immobile Holliday junctions with the help of the single-strand annealing protein Redβ. Individual DNA single strands are initially coated with protein monomers and subsequently hybridized to form a rigid blunt-ended four-arm junction. We investigate the efficiency of this approach for different DNA/protein ratios, as well as for different DNA sequence lengths. Furthermore, we also evaluate the potential of Redβ to anneal sticky-end modified Holliday junctions into hierarchical assemblies. We demonstrate the Redβ-mediated annealing of Holliday junction dimers, multimers, and extended networks several microns in size. While these hybrid DNA–protein nanostructures may find applications in the crystallization of DNA–protein complexes, our work shows the great potential of Redβ to aid in the synthesis of functional DNA nanostructures under mild reaction conditions.</jats:p>"}],"doi":"10.3390/molecules25215099","volume":25,"publication_identifier":{"issn":["1420-3049"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"22645","intvolume":"        25","year":"2020","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:55:37Z","author":[{"last_name":"Ramakrishnan","full_name":"Ramakrishnan, Saminathan","first_name":"Saminathan"},{"full_name":"Subramaniam, Sivaraman","last_name":"Subramaniam","first_name":"Sivaraman"},{"last_name":"Kielar","full_name":"Kielar, Charlotte","first_name":"Charlotte"},{"first_name":"Guido","id":"194","last_name":"Grundmeier","full_name":"Grundmeier, Guido"},{"first_name":"A.
