Self-assembly, which makes use of molecules rather than atomic units, offers a bottom-up
approach to the construction of new materials on multiple length scales.(1-9) By precisely …

Supramolecular chemistry mainly focuses on the chemical systems assembled by a discrete
number of molecular components through weak and reversible noncovalent interactions …

Spontaneous deracemizations is a challenging, multidisciplinary subject in current chirality
research. In the absence of any chiral inductors, an achiral substance or a racemic …

Anion recognition is pertinent to a range of environmental, medicinal and industrial
applications. Recent progress in the field has relied on advances in synthetic host design to …

Research into macromolecular self-assembly has been progressively develo** since the
1970s but with a little affect from the achievements of supramolecular chemistry. In recent …

Efficient delivery of drugs to living cells is still a major challenge. Currently, most methods
rely on the endocytotic pathway resulting in low delivery efficiency due to limited endosomal …

Noncovalent systems are adaptive and allow facile processing and recycling. Can they be at
the same time robust? How can one rationally design such systems? Can they compete with …

The membrane proteins found in nature control many important cellular functions, including
signal transduction and transmembrane ion transport, and these, in turn, are regulated by …

Small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) are indispensable model membranes, organelle mimics,
and drug and vaccine carriers. However, the lack of robust techniques to functionalize or …

Lipid bilayer membranes form compartments requisite for life. Interfacing supramolecular
systems, including receptors, catalysts, signal transducers and ion transporters, enables the …
