Fig. 1

a Schematic of site-specific hybrid complexes. The cBDP is represented by a red spot and the DNA backbone is represented by a black arrow. b Structural formula of cBDP-DNA conjugates. The electron-withdrawing BODIPY core is highlighted in blue, and the electron-donating BINOL moiety is highlighted in red. The designation “II” stands for “equal to”. c CD spectra of Au complexes with cBDP (S) and cBDP (R). d, e CD spectra of cBDP (S), Ag (d), and Au (e) complexes with cBDP (S). The cBDP surface concentrations in the three complexes were close in (d) and (e), respectively. The red arrow indicated a clear redshift. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
