A study of the morphology, dynamics, and folding pathways of ring polymers with supramolecular topological constraints using molecular simulation and nonlinear manifold learning [PDF]
, 2017 Ring polymers are prevalent in natural and engineered systems, including circular bacterial DNA, crown ethers for cation chelation, and mechanical nanoswitches. The morphology and dynamics of ring polymers are governed by the chemistry and degree of polymerization of the ring, and intramolecular and supramolecular topological constraints such as knots ...

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.Coacervation driven by liquid‐liquid phase separation (LLPS) of biopolymers has garnered increasing attention in biology since this leads to the formation of membraneless organelles capable of performing essential yet largely unknown functions. This review highlights recent advances in coacervates (artificial condensates) composed of low‐molecular ...

Noncovalent Interactions in Supramolecular Complexes: A Study on Corannulene and the Double Concave Buckycatcher [PDF]
Journal of Computational Chemistry, 30, 51 (2009), 2010 Stimulated by the recent observation of {\pi}-{\pi} interactions between C60 and corannulene subunits in a molecular tweezer arrangement (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 3842), a density functional theory study was performed to analyze the electronic structure and properties of various noncovalent corannulene complexes.

Dendrimers and supramolecular chemistry [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002 Since their introduction in 1985 by Tomalia et al. (1) and Newkome et al. (2), dendrimers have attracted much attention because of their fascinating structure and unique properties (3, 4). Dendrimers are globular, size monodisperse macromolecules in which all bonds emerge radially from a central focal point or core with a regular branching pattern and ...

Toward Design Principles for Biomolecular Condensates for Metabolic Pathways
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates are membrane‐less compartments found through‐out nature which can serve as reaction crucibles for biochemical processes. This review explores the design strategies underlying how condensates can be used in biotechnology to enhance multistep enzyme cascades including enhancement by mass action and substrate channeling, and ...

Potential curves illustrating a dissipative self-assembly system and the meaning of away-from-equilibrium [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Dissipative self-assembly is a recently proposed concept in the field of non-equilibrium systems. This concept catches the reader's attention owing to its relationship with life phenomena. Recently, Credi's group has reported the behavior of a directional supramolecular pump that works under continuous light irradiation with the regime of dissipative ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Dynamic linkages are highly attractive in preparing single crystals of covalent organic polymers (COPs). Here, single crystals of two COPs CityU‐15 and CityU‐16 based on reversible B─N bonds are constructed using tetra(4‐pyridyl)tetrathiafulvalene and tetra(4‐pyridyl)porphine as monomers.
