A Portal‐Preorganized Cucurbit[7]uril‐Ruthenium Conjugate Enables Motif‐Selective Protein Sensing

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Reprogramming cucurbit[7]uril (CB7) recognition through portal engineering transforms an optically silent host into a motif‐selective photoluminescent receptor. The portal‐preorganized CB7‐Rubpy conjugate directly reports changes in aromatic motif accessibility, enabling optical sensing of protein misfolding and refolding.

Mitochondria‐endoplasmic reticulum organelle glue as maturation promoter for origination/dimensional dual‐cross cardiomyocytes

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Mitochondria‐endoplasmic reticulum contact sites (MERCS) are areas where the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum closely interact. In this study, we utilize synthetic organelle glues to artificially engineer MERCS for regulating cardiomyocyte development, through which the immature and chemo‐plasticity issues of undifferentiated cells are addressed.

Substrate stiffness regulates cell fate and its applications in the repair of motor system: From two dimensions to three dimensions

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Substrate stiffness with different dimensions (2D and 3D) exerts a regulatory role in cellular behaviors, thereby governing cell fate decisions. Biomaterials with tunable stiffness exhibit substantial functional potential for the repair and regeneration of the motor system.

Mild C─F Activation of Azido(per)Fluoroalkanes

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Mild and selective activation of C(sp3)–F bonds in azido(per)fluoroalkanes using thiolates was developed, leading to novel functionalized azides. The reaction is initiated by nucleophilic attack of the sulfur atom to the terminal nitrogen of the azido group, followed by fluoride ion elimination.

Click Bioconjugation of Aza‐BODIPY Fluorophores to LfcinB Peptides for Improved Biocompatibility

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Click bioconjugation attaches NIR aza‐BODIPY fluorophores to LfcinB‐derived anticancer peptides via CuAAC and thiol‐maleimide chemistry. Conjugates exhibit improved predicted solubility while retaining strong NIR absorption (703–730 nm). Peptide‐aza‐BODIPY conjugates induce apoptotic morphology in HeLa cancer cells.

Boronic Acid Inhibitors of β‐Lactamases: A Promising Strategy Against Antimicrobial Resistance

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical threat to global health, mostly due to the proliferation of β‐lactamases, a class of enzymes responsible for the inactivation of β‐lactam antibiotics. Among the most promising strategies to restore β‐lactam efficacy is the use of β‐lactamase inhibitors (BLIs), with boronic acid ...
