Dynamic Gelatin Hydrogels Crosslinked by Dithiolane‐Norbornene Click Chemistry
Macromolecular Bioscience, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.Gelatin‐norbornene (GelNB) and poly(ethylene glycol)‐tetra‐lipoic acid (PEG4LA) are modularly photo‐crosslinked into gelatin‐based hydrogels with dynamically tunable mechanics for expansion and differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC). ABSTRACT Hydrogels prepared from gelatin are ideal for mimicking the extracellular matrix (ECM) owing ...

Transcriptional outputs and condensates – formation and function
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1145-1154, February 2026.Summary The dynamic spatiotemporal organization of macromolecules is key to the proper function of the cell, allowing the exquisite regulation of diverse processes from gene expression to enzymatic function. The formation of biomolecular condensates via phase separation (PS) acts as a general mechanism for selectively concentrating proteins, nucleic ...
