Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a DNA nanostructure for detecting a target structure. In particular, the present invention relates to a DNA nanostructure, which ensures a preferably linear dependence on the number of marker molecules and the measurement signal regardless of the physical arrangement of a plurality of such DNA nanostructures by virtue of the skilled selection of the shape of the DNA nanostructure and the placement of the marker molecules attached to it. The invention additionally relates to the use of said DNA nanostructures and other nanoreporters, preferably in combination with adapters which bind specifically to target molecules, in a method for quantifying a plurality of target molecules, preferably in a simultaneous manner, using a multiplex method.
