Sialic Acid-Responsive Polymeric Interface Material: From Molecular Recognition to Macroscopic Property Switching
Biological systems that utilize multiple weak non-covalent interactions and hierarchical assemblies to achieve various bio-functions bring much inspiration for the design of artificial biomaterials. However, it remains a big challenge to correlate underlying biomolecule interactions with macroscopic level of materials, for example, recognizing such weak interaction, further transforming it into...
متن کاملA metal–ion-responsive adhesive material via switching of molecular recognition properties
Common adhesives stick to a wide range of materials immediately after they are applied to the surfaces. To prevent indiscriminate sticking, smart adhesive materials that adhere to a specific target surface only under particular conditions are desired. Here we report a polymer hydrogel modified with both β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and 2,2'-bipyridyl (bpy) moieties (βCD-bpy gel) as a functional adhesiv...
متن کاملSialic acid recognition by Vibrio cholerae neuraminidase.
Vibrio cholerae neuraminidase (VCNA) plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of cholera by removing sialic acid from higher order gangliosides to unmask GM1, the receptor for cholera toxin. We previously showed that the structure of VCNA is composed of a central beta-propeller catalytic domain flanked by two lectin-like domains; however the nature of the carbohydrates recognized by these l...
متن کاملMacroscopic self-assembly through molecular recognition.
Molecular recognition plays an important role in nature, with perhaps the best known example being the complementarity exhibited by pairs of nucleobases in DNA. Studies of self-assembling and self-organizing systems based on molecular recognition are often performed at the molecular level, however, and any macroscopic implications of these processes are usually far removed from the specific mol...
متن کاملdrug release modeling from a novel temperature-responsive polymeric system
nowadays, environment-sensitive smart drug delivery systems have found diverse applications in pharmaceutical science and technology. these systems can respond to the environment stimuli such as temperature, pressure, ph, light, electrical and magnetical fields and etc. they can release the proper amount of drug in human body. among these systems, special attention and much research works have ...
