DNA origami is a widely used DNA nanotechnology that allows construction of two-dimensional and three-dimensional nanometric shapes. The designability and rigidity of DNA origami make it an ideal material for construction of topologically linked molecules such as catenanes, which are attractive for their potential as motors and molecular machines. However, a general method for production of topologically linked DNA origami has been lacking. Here, we show that catenated single-stranded DNA circles can be produced and used as a universal scaffold for the production of topologically linked (catenated) DNA origami structures where the individual linked structures can be of any arbitrary design. Assembly of these topologically linked DNA origami structures is achieved via a simple one-pot annealing protocol.
