This Review presents polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, nucleic acids, peptides, and
proteins as functional stimuli‐responsive polymer scaffolds that yield hydrogels with …

G-Quadruplexes attract growing interest as functional constituents in biology, chemistry,
nanotechnology, and material science. In particular, the reversible dynamic reconfiguration …

An acid-resistant DNA hydrogel that is stable in an extremely acidic environment with pH as
low as 1.2 has not been reported before, largely due to the instability of DNA-hybridized …

Author: Please verify that the changes made to improve the English still retain your original
meaning. Detection of microRNA (miRNA) in dermal interstitial fluid (ISF) has emerged as …

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) stores genetic information as a biomolecule, and also is
regarded as a block copolymer and polyanion. Under favorable environments, DNA …

Conspectus The base sequence of nucleic acids encodes structural and functional
information into the DNA biopolymer. External stimuli such as metal ions, pH, light, or added …

Hydrogels are crosslinked hydrophilic polymers that can absorb a large amount of water. By
their hydrophilic, biocompatible and highly tunable nature, hydrogels can be tailored for …

Free enzymes employed as biological catalysts have many advantages such as low reaction
time, involving low energy and less waste output when compared to conventional chemical …

The synthesis of nucleic acid-functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is described.
The metal-organic frameworks are loaded with a dye being locked in the structures by …

A versatile approach to modify metal–organic framework nanoparticles (NMOFs) with
nucleic acid tethers, using the “click chemistry” method is introduced. The nucleic acid …
