Bottom‐up fabrication of electric circuits and devices is highly sought after. The self‐assembly properties of DNA, along with the ability to metallize it, make these molecules advantageous for such fabrication. In article number 1800433 , Alexander Kotlyar, Danny Porath, and co‐workers present an improved method for thinly coating DNA with gold, along with pioneering detailed electrical characterization of the formed wires.
