During the self-assembly and operation of DNA-based nanomechanical devices like the previously reported molecular tweezers or actuators, unwanted dimerization can occur. Here we show that in the case of the DNA nanoactuator dimerization predominantly occurs at the assembly stage. Correctly formed molecular devices can be purified and subsequently operated without interference by dimers.
