Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

Dissipatively Fueled Unidirectionally Communicating DNA Circuits That Control Biocatalysis
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Unidirectionally communicating, out‐of‐equilibrium DNA circuits are used to control enzyme activity. Transient DNAzyme activation generates fuel for temporal trypsin activation. Cyclic fuel‐driven hybridization and exonuclease‐mediated reset enable precise control over lifetimes, which is analyzed using combined experimental and computational ...

Small‐Molecule Activation of mRNA Translation by Click‐to‐Release Reaction in Cells
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A new method to control mRNA activity using bioorthogonal click‐to‐release reactions is presented. The 5′ cap is modified with a trans‐cyclooctene (TCO) that quickly reacts with hydroxyaryl‐tetrazines and efficiently releases the native cap 0. TCO‐capped mRNAs are initially translationally inactive but can be activated with non‐toxic, cell‐permeable ...

Patterned-ground facilitates shrub expansion in Low Arctic tundra
Environmental Research Letters, 2013 Recent expansion of tall shrubs in Low Arctic tundra is widely seen as a response to climate warming, but shrubification is not occurring as a simple function of regional climate trends.
