Polymerization‐Induced Self‐Assembly for Artificial Biology: Opportunities and Challenges [PDF]
AbstractThe study of the origin of life and current undergoing efforts to produce artificial chemical systems mimicking the behavior of natural living systems have emerged as a hot topic at the interfaces among disciplines. In these two problems, the spontaneous generation of free‐energy gradients by means of material interfaces plays a central role ...

Amphiphilic AIEgen‐polymer aggregates: Design, self‐assembly and biomedical applications
Aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) is a phenomenon in which fluorescence is enhanced rather than quenched upon molecular assembly. AIE fluorogens (AIEgens) are flexible, conjugated systems that are limited in their dynamics when assembled, which improves

POP1 inhibits MSU-induced inflammasome activation and ameliorates gout
Canonical inflammasomes are innate immune protein scaffolds that enable the activation of inflammatory caspase-1, and subsequently the processing and release of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18, and danger signals, as well as the induction of pyroptotic cell ...

Regulation of Op18 during Spindle Assembly in Xenopus Egg Extracts [PDF]
Oncoprotein 18 (Op18) is a microtubule-destabilizing protein that is negatively regulated by phosphorylation. To evaluate the role of the three Op18 phosphorylation sites in Xenopus (Ser 16, 25, and 39), we added wild-type Op18, a nonphosphorylatable ...
