Supramolecular self-assemblies for bacterial cell agglutination driven by directional charge-transfer interactions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two supramolecular amphiphiles are fabricated through directional charge-transfer interactions, which self-assemble into nanofibers and nanoribbons. Due to the existence of galactose on their surface, these self-assemblies act as a cell glue to agglutinate E. coli, benefiting from multivalent interactions.

Supramolecular assemblies built with host-stabilized charge-transfer interactions.
Host-stabilized charge-transfer (CT) interactions and supramolecular assemblies built with these interactions are described. A variety of supramolecular assemblies including polyrotaxanes, molecular necklaces, and rotaxane dendrimers were synthesized through the intramolecular or intermolecular host-stabilized CT complex formation using cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) and D-A molecules having both elec...
متن کاملMolecular recognition and self-assembly special feature: Supramolecular polymer formed by reversible self-assembly of tetrakisporphyrin.
S-shaped tetrakisporphyrin 2 forms supramolecular polymeric assemblies via a complementary affinity of its bisporphyrin units in solution. The self-association constant determined by applying the isodesmic model is >10(6) L mol(-1), which suggests that a sizable polymer forms at millimolar concentrations at room temperature. The electron deficient aromatic guest (TNF) binds within the molecular...

Developing effective and versatile photocatalytic systems is of great potential in solar energy conversion. Here we investigate the formation of supramolecular catalysts by electrostatic self-assembly in aqueous solution: Combining positively charged porphyrins with negatively charged polyelectrolytes leads to nanoscale assemblies where, next to electrostatic interactions, π–π interactions also...
متن کاملSupramolecular Assemblies with Dna*
Information storage in chemical and biological systems involves recognition processes occurring at the molecular and macromolecular level. The implementation of a “code” can consist of multiple noncovalent interactions, which include hydrogen bonds, π-stacking, hydrophobic interactions, and appropriate molecular and supramolecular architectures. With the double-helical DNA structure stabilized ...
