Multivalent systems, i.e. systems presenting a discrete collection of several functional groups, are well recognized for their ability to increase binding constants. Less explored is their use as catalysts. We present a number of multivalent nanostructures based on self-assembled gold nanoparticles and dendrimers, which are particularly efficient in the cleavage of nucleic acids and their models.
