Claim Text:
1. A composition comprising nucleic acid nanotubes, each nanotube having a nanotube length, each nanotube formed from a single-stranded scaffold nucleic acid molecule and a plurality of staple oligonucleotides together forming a number of double-stranded nucleic acid helices joined by the single-stranded scaffold nucleic acid molecule, the nanotube length being the length of the single-stranded scaffold nucleic acid molecule divided by the number of double stranded nucleic acid helices comprising each nanotube, and wherein the length of the nucleic acid helices varies by no more than 20% of an average length of the helices, and wherein each of the nanotubes comprises at least three adjacent double-stranded helices.
