Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular Uptake of Nanoparticles versus Small Molecules: A Matter of Size.
TL;DR: Particular attention is paid to approaches that allow conditional regulation of the cell internalization process using external triggers, such as activable cell penetrating peptides, due to the impact these systems may have in drug delivery and sensing applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micelle-directed chiral seeded growth on anisotropic gold nanocrystals
Guillermo González-Rubio,Jesús Mosquera,Vished Kumar,Adrián Pedrazo-Tardajos,Pablo Llombart,Pablo Llombart,Diego M. Solís,Ivan Lobato,Eva G. Noya,Andrés Guerrero-Martínez,José M. Taboada,Fernando Obelleiro,Luis G. MacDowell,Sara Bals,Luis M. Liz-Marzán +14 more
TL;DR: Surfactant-assisted seeded growth of metal nanoparticles (NPs) can be engineered to produce anisotropic gold nanocrystals with high chiroptical activity through the templating effect of chiral micelles formed in the presence of dissymmetric cosurfactants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Anion Extraction and Recovery Using a FeII 4L4 Cage
TL;DR: It is reported that FeII 4L4 cage 1 is able to extract an equimolar amount of ReO4 −, a high‐value anion and a nonradioactive surrogate of TcO 4 −, from water into nitromethane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anion Binding in Water Drives Structural Adaptation in an Azaphosphatrane-Functionalized FeII4L4 Tetrahedron
Dawei Zhang,Dawei Zhang,Tanya K. Ronson,Jesús Mosquera,Alexandre Martinez,Laure Guy,Jonathan R. Nitschke +6 more
TL;DR: A shape memory phenomenon was observed during guest displacement because guest exchange occurs more rapidly than structural reconfiguration, and this new water-soluble cage is flexible and able to encapsulate anions with volumes ranging from 35 to 219 Å3 via hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA recognition by synthetic constructs.
TL;DR: Synthetic peptides that have been designed by following the DNA interaction of natural proteins are discussed, and how the tools of organic synthesis can be used to make artificial constructs equipped with functionalities that introduce additional properties to the recognition process, such as sensing and controllability.
