We firstly planned to fabricate the barrel, the doll, and the sword of the pop-up pirate on the nanoscale with DNA-Origami. DNA-origami doll is combined with the DNA-origami barrel through the hybridization. The doll DNA and the barrel DNA are designed as mostly complementary but partially mismatched (Fig. 4a). If we add a sword DNA which is perfectly complementary with the barrel DNA, the DNA-origami doll will be replaced with the sword DNA and will be released（Fig.4b）.
It is easy to design the shape of the barrel and the doll only with DNA origami.
However, in order to directly observe how the DNA-origami doll jump out from the DNA-origami barrel, it is necessary to perform real-time observation of DNA origami with high-speed atomic force microscopy (AFM) in liquid. This observation is supposed to be technically very difficult. In addition, there is a problem of the instability, difficulty in large scale synthesis, and high cost of the DNA-origami when we consider the development of the present study to applications.

<1> ssDNA-modified silica particles as the 'Doll' and the 'Barrel'
To solve the problems in the early designs, we fabricate the nanopop-up pirate using ssDNA-modified colloidal silica particles as the doll and the barrel. For the colloid system, the pop-up event can be observed on real-time with an optical microscopy with no technical problem; the observation is much easier than the DNA-origami system which require the high-speed AFM. The use of silica particles is also advantageous because we can synthesize the large amount of the samples at low cost. We can also control the particle size and shape, and even porosity in view of future applications. In addition, in the case of the mesoporous silica, the form resembles to that the barrel with many holes! The modification of DNA is possible because the silica can be chemically modifiable Si-OH groups on the surface.
First we prepare 'barrel particle'. We synthesize the silica particle and modify its surface with the barrel ssDNA. We then prepare the 'doll particle' in the similar way to the 'barrel particle'. We modify the silica particle with the doll DNA, which is mostly complementary but partially mismatched with the barrel DNA. Then, the doll particle and the barrel particle are combined by DNA hybridization. The base sequences of the ssDNAs of the 'barrel DNA', and the 'doll DNA' are shown in Table 2. The bases marked by blue color are mismatched so that the Doll DNA will be displaced with a more complementary sword-DNA.
