TL;DR: An overview of conjugated organic semiconductors and their applications in biological sensing with a primary focus on the role of the organic semiconductor is provided in this paper, where the authors cover work carried out with polymers as well as small molecules, from the well-established and commercially available systems to the emerging and recently developed materials.

TL;DR: A new self-assembled sensor, DimerDye, that uses a novel photochemical guest-sensing mechanism and that is intrinsically tolerant of cosolutes is reported, that provides a real-time, turn-on fluorescence signal in response to the lysine methyltransferase reaction of PRDM9.

TL;DR: In this article , three different isoindigoid building blocks are used to obtain polymeric mixed conductors with vastly different structural and electronic properties which can be further fine-tuned through the choice of comonomer unit.

TL;DR: Important evidence is found of the key role played by weak electrostatic interactions, such as the five-membered hydrogen-bonded pseudocycles (C5) between the amide protons and the ether oxygen atoms, in the conformation equilibrium of the macrocycles and in the cyclization step of the cyclic tetrapeptides.

TL;DR: A new series of hybrid dipeptide-like organocatalysts based on pyranoid ϵ- or ζ-amino acids and proline have been prepared for the asymmetric Michael addition of aldehydes to β-nitrostyrenes to afford a wide range of γ-nitroaldehydes.
