DNA nanostructures (DN) are powerful platforms for the programmable assembly of nanomaterials. As applications for DN both as a structural material and as a support for functional biomolecular sensing systems develop, methods enabling the determination of reaction kinetics in real time become increasingly important. In this report, we present a study of the kinetics of streptavidin binding onto biotinylated DN constructs enabled by these planar structures. High-speed AFM was employed at a 2.5 frame/s rate to evaluate the kinetics and indicates that the binding fully saturates in less than 60 s. When the the data was fitted with an adsorption-limited kinetic model, a forward rate constant of 5.03 × 105 s-1 was found.
