Ultrafast water permeation in aquaporins is promoted by their hydrophobic interior surface.
Polytetrafluoroethylene has a dense fluorine surface, leading to its strong water repellence …

Molecular adhesion based on multivalent interactions plays essential roles in various
biological processes. Hence,“molecular glues” that can adhere to biomolecules may …

Substrate-initiated, self-inactivating, cell-penetrating poly (disulfide) s (siCPDs) are
introduced as general transporters for the covalent delivery of unmodified substrates of free …

Water wetting behavior in nanoconfined environments plays an important role in mass
transport and signal transmission of organisms. It is valuable and challenging to investigate …

ABA-triblock copolyethers 1a–1c as linear polymeric binders, in combination with clay
nanosheets (CNSs), afford high-water-content moldable supramolecular hydrogels with …

The light-responsive nanochannel of rhodopsin gained wider research interest from its
crucial roles in light-induced biological functions, such as visual signal transduction and …

A series of water-soluble telechelic dithiol monomers bearing multiple guanidinium ion
(Gu+) units in their main chains were synthesized for packaging siRNA by template-assisted …

Transferrin (Tf) is known to induce transcytosis, which is a consecutive endocytosis/
exocytosis event. We developed a Tf-appended nanocaplet (TfNC⊃ siRNA) for the purpose …

Caspase-3 (Casp-3) is an enzyme that efficiently induces apoptosis, a form of programmed
cell death. We report a dendritic molecular glue PCGlue that enables intracellular delivery of …

We developed a water-soluble adhesive photoswitch (Glue n-Azo-SA, average n= 5) that
selectively binds to a target enzyme and photochemically modulates its enzymatic activity …
