molecular architectonics enabled the creation of novel DNA nanoarchitectures with potential applications, which has been termed as templated DNA nanotechnology or functionalDNAnanoarchitectonics. This review highlights the molecular architectonics-guided design principles and applications of the derived
DNA nanoarchitectures. The advantages and ability of functionalDNAnanoarchitectonics to overcome the trivial drawbacks of classical DNA nanotechnology to fulfill realistic and practical applications are highlighted, and an outlook on future developments is presented.
