Enhancing tetraphenylethene cyclization as photoswitch
Smart Molecules, 2023 Tetraphenylethene (TPE), a star building block with promising aggregation‐induced emission, has received much interest. Given that its intramolecular Woodward‐Hoffmann cyclic intermediate instantaneously converts back to the original state within several

G-quadruplex-based CRISPR photoswitch for spatiotemporal control of genomic modulation
Nucleic Acids Research, 2023 CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) technology holds tremendous promise for gene regulation and editing. However, precise control of CRISPR editing is essential to overcome its uncontrollable reaction process and excessive ...

A red light–responsive photoswitch for deep tissue optogenetics
Nature Biotechnology, 2022 Red light penetrates deep into mammalian tissues and has low phototoxicity, but few optogenetic tools that use red light have been developed. Here we present MagRed, a red light–activatable photoswitch that consists of a red light–absorbing bacterial ...

Optimizing photoswitchable MEK [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019 SignificanceControlling access to the active sites of kinases using photo-dimerizable domains revolutionizes the types of possible optogenetic perturbations of cell signaling. This technology, however, is useful only when there is strong kinase activity to harness.

Photoswitchable Anapole Metasurfaces
Advanced Optical Materials, 2021 AbstractNonradiating charge‐current configurations have attracted attention in photonics for the efficient localization of the electromagnetic field. Anapole mode is a unique nonradiating state of light induced by the interference of electric and toroidal dipole that possesses rich physics with potential applications in micro‐nanophotonics.

Photoswitching neutral homoaromatic hydrocarbons [PDF]
Nature Chemistry, 2022 Abstract Homoaromatic compounds possess an interrupted π system but display aromatic properties due to through-space or through-bond interactions. Stable neutral homoaromatic hydrocarbons have remained rare and are typically unstable.

Enlightening Materials with Photoswitches [PDF]
Advanced Materials, 2020 AbstractIncorporating molecular photoswitches into various materials provides unique opportunities for controlling their properties and functions with high spatiotemporal resolution using remote optical stimuli. The great and largely still untapped potential of these photoresponsive systems has not yet been fully exploited due to the fundamental ...
