Remote-controlled intracellular delivery is achieved using a plasmonic waveguide coated with a photoresponsive NO-releasing MOF. Surface plasmon polariton propagation remotely induces photocleavage a...

Molecular recognition plays a central role in supramolecular chemistry. The concept of molecular recognition initially emerged from discrete molecular systems and has now been expanded to solid-state ...

Molecular recognition plays a central role in supramolecular chemistry. The concept of molecular recognition initially emerged from discrete molecular systems and has nowadays been expanded to solid-state soft materials; however, there remains a lack of ...

institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS) strives to 1) create a new integrated discipline of cell-material sciences based on the cross-disciplinary field of chemistry, physics and cell ...

Combination therapies can significantly aid in the treatment of biologically complex diseases, including cancer. These powerful therapies, such as combination nitric oxide (NO) gas and chemotherapy, a...

Soft porous crystals (SPCs) based on flexible metal–organic cages (MOCs) remain elusive due to challenges in preserving both dynamic behavior and crystallinity after desolvation. Here, we report an SP...

Supramolecular frameworks, ordered porous networks assembled by noncovalent interactions, are a broad class of functional materials with emergent combinations of properties arising from the relatively...

Here, we show that 3D electron diffraction (3D ED) is an effective technique to observe structural transformations in porous metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs), as well as for obtaining the structure of ....

Synthetic ion channels that imitate biological counterparts have become increasingly important in synthetic biology and the recently emerging field of engineering biology. Recent advances have yielded...

Chemistry World talks to Ryo Horikoshi about engaging students with chemistry concepts using his stunning paper models

In reticular chemistry, the formation of strong chemical bonds between molecular components is typically considered a core prerequisite for synthesizing open-framework materials. Now a series of robus...
