Peptide Sequencing With Single Acid Resolution Using a Sub‐Nanometer Diameter Pore

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
To sequence a single molecule of Aβ1−42–sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the aggregate is forced through a sub‐nanopore 0.4 nm in diameter spanning a 4.0 nm thick membrane. The figure is a visual molecular dynamics (VMD) snapshot depicting the translocation of Aβ1−42–SDS through the pore; only the peptide, the SDS, the Na+ (yellow/green) and Cl− (cyan ...

O-GlcNAcase:promiscuous hexosaminidase or key regulator of O-GlcNAc signalling? [PDF]

, 2014
O-GlcNAc signaling is regulated by an opposing pair of enzymes: O-GlcNAc transferase installs and O-GlcNAcase (OGA) removes the modification from proteins.

Solvent‐Free Bonding Mechanisms and Microstructure Engineering in Dry Electrode Technology for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Dry electrode technology revolutionizes battery manufacturing by eliminating toxic solvents and energy‐intensive drying. This work details two promising techniques: dry spray deposition and polymer fibrillation. How their unique solvent‐free bonding mechanisms create uniform microstructures for thicker, denser electrodes, boosting energy density and ...

Using High‐Throughput Screening to Identify Crosslinking Peptides That Control Cell‐Mediated Matrix Degradation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Protease‐degradable hydrogels mimic dynamic cell‐matrix interactions, but controlling hydrogel degradation is a challenge. We screen libraries of peptides to identify sequences that are primarily degraded by membrane‐localized proteases. Crosslinking hydrogels with these peptides enables cell to spread and migrate while reducing matrix degradation ...

A Patient‐Specific 3D Printed Carotid Artery Model Integrating Vascular Structure, Flow, and Endothelium Responses

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces the first miniaturized, patient‐specific carotid artery model created via 3D printing using GelMA with embedded vascular cells. Combining CFD, PIV, and flow perfusion, the model replicates anatomically dependent hemodynamics and cellular responses.

Redox‐Active Polyphenol Red Molecularly Imprinted Polymers on Porous Gold Electrodes for Ultrasensitive, AI‐Assisted Detection of Alzheimer's Biomarkers in Undiluted Biofluids

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a low‐cost, reagent‐free point‐of‐care biosensor integrating redox‐active polyphenol red molecularly imprinted polymers (pPhR MIPs) on highly porous gold (HPG) electrodes for ultrasensitive detection of phosphorylated tau 181 (p‐Tau 181), an Alzheimer’s disease biomarker, in undiluted biofluids.
