Macrocycles are effective molecular glues to stabilize the 14‐3‐3/ChREBP interaction. Linker length modulation uncovered an inverse correlation between the macrocycle binding affinity to 14‐3‐3 and its cooperativity in 14‐3‐3/ChREBP stabilization.

Site-Specific Bioconjugation of a Murine Dihydrofolate Reductase Enzyme by Copper(I)-Catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition with Retained Activity [PDF]
Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) is an efficient reaction linking an azido and an alkynyl group in the presence of copper catalyst. Incorporation of a non-natural amino acid (NAA) containing either an azido or an alkynyl group into a ...

Programmable Nanoscale Motion via Molecular Patterning on DNA Origami
DNA origami nanorods enable precise urease placement with tunable coverage and asymmetry, revealing that propulsion depends on a balance of catalytic loading and geometry. Maximum speed occurs at ∼25% end‐coverage and declines as enzyme distribution becomes more symmetrical.

Expanding the Chemical Space of Cyclic Polyphthalaldehyde via Post‐Functionalization
In this work, we developed a post‐functionalization approach to achieve water‐soluble cyclic polyphthalaldehyde (cPPA) polymers via click chemistry. ABSTRACT Cyclic polyphthalaldehydes (cPPAs) are hydrophobic cyclic polymers with stimuli‐responsive depolymerization property. The introduction of hydrophilic functionalities to cPPAs is challenging due to

Chemoselective sequential click ligations directed by enhanced reactivity of an aromatic ynamine [PDF]
Aromatic ynamines or N-alkynylheteroarenes are highly reactive alkyne components in Cu-catalyzed Huisgen [3 +2] cycloaddition (“click”) reactions. This enhanced reactivity enables the chemoselective formation of 1,4-triazoles using the representative ...
