A thermodynamic basis for prebiotic amino acid synthesis and the nature of the first genetic code

, 2009
Of the twenty amino acids used in proteins, ten were formed in Miller's atmospheric discharge experiments. The two other major proposed sources of prebiotic amino acid synthesis include formation in hydrothermal vents and delivery to Earth via meteorites.

Beyond Cocrystals: Hierarchical Functional Assemblies via Noncovalent Synthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Non‐covalent interactions (NCIs) drive the formation of organic cocrystals with diverse structures and tunable optoelectronic properties. This review explores the essential factors governing these properties, highlighting how the sequential nucleation of cocrystals leads to the self‐assembly of organic hierarchical structures (OHSs).

Shedding Light on Synthetic Autocatalysis: From Conventional Closed‐Shell Chemistries to Overlooked Open‐Shell Occurrences

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Why add another catalyst when the product itself holds the power to catalyze its own formation? Autocatalysis in synthetic chemistry enhances reaction efficiency and uncovers novel catalytic behavior across both closed‐shell and open‐shell systems, expanding reactivity and enabling innovative design strategies.

Self‐Calibrating Ratiometric DNA Aptamer Probe for Quantitative ATP Imaging in Living Cells

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We developed the RFA–ECHO probe, an internally calibrated ATP sensor that remains responsive across millimolar ATP levels. Its self‐correcting Cy5/ECHO ratio ensures accurate quantification independent of probe uptake. Compared with FRET‐based sensors, it yields a robust ratiometric shift, distinguishing high‐ATP cancer cells from normal ones, enabling
