  1. Comparison of sequences that were generated by using EGNAS, and those used by Ding et al.[40] or Stearns et al.[41] to modify staple strands of triangular DNA origami or six-helix bundle nanotubes, respectively. Molar free enthalpies (ΔG, kcal/mol) of the most stable hairpins. Averages ± standard deviations.
