Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations for Birefringence Relaxation of Photo-Switchable Molecules on a Surface

, 2016
Recent experiments have demonstrated that in a dense monolayer of photo-switchable dye Methyl-Red molecules the relaxation of an initial birefringence follows a power-law decay, typical for glass-like dynamics.

Dynamic Switchable and Transient DNA Condensates Driven by Aptamer‐Ligand or Ion‐Nucleobase Bridged Complexes

Small, EarlyView.
Switchable or transient formation and dissociation of the phase‐separated DNA microdroplets generated by metal ions or aptamer‐ligand complexes crosslinking Y‐shaped DNA frameworks and dynamically separated by counter ligands eliminating the bridging metal ions or biocatalysts degrading the aptamer‐ligand complexes, are introduced.

The photoswitchable ABAMIs for the future regulation of GWT1 in a spatiotemporal level

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
The GWT1‐targeted azobenzene‐aminopyridine derivatives (ABAMIs), sensitive to the light at wavelengths from 365 to 520 nm, are separately developed as photochromic ligands to regulate bioactivity as well as the GWT1 functions. These molecules are smart tools in photopharmacological studies, giving an innovative method for understanding functional GWT1 ...

Visible‐Light Sensitized Isomerization in the Lipid Bilayer Enables Activation of a Transmembrane Transporter

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 20, 11 May 2026.
A stiff‐stilbene‐based transmembrane anion transporter is isomerized by energy transfer from a ruthenium tris(bipyridyl) photosensitizer in the lipid bilayer. This sensitized isomerization allows activation of chloride transport using visible instead of UV light, without the need to chemically modify the stiff‐stilbene photoswitch.
