Modular assembly of superstructures from polyphenol-functionalized building blocks

Regiospecific Hetero-Assembly of DNA-Functionalized Plasmonic Upconversion Superstructures

We report a novel strategy for regiospecific hetero-assembly of DNA-modified gold nanoparticles (DNA-AuNPs) onto upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) into hybrid lab-on-a-particle systems. The DNA-AuNPs have been assembled onto the hexagonal plate-like UCNPs with well-regulated stoichiometry and controlled organization onto the different facets of UCNP, forming various addressable superstructures...

Modular Development of Interpreters from Semantic Building Blocks

Synthesis of Functionalized Aryl-vinyl Ethers as Building Blocks and Auxiliaries in Organic Synthesis

5- hydroxyisoquinoline undergoes a smooth reaction with alkyl propiolates in the presence of triphenylphosphine (15 mol%) to produce the corresponding (E)-alkyl 3-(isoquinolin-5-yloxy) acrylate in good yields. When the reaction was performed by 2-methyl 4-hydroxyquinoline and 3-nitro 4-hydroxypyridine, similar aryl vinyl ethers were obtained.

Re ective Building Blocks for Modular

The formal deenition of any namespace device found in a programming language can be given in terms of transformations on a semantic environment. It is therefore worthwhile to consider the implications of incorporating environments as bona de data objects in a programming system. Because of their expressive power, environments can be easily abused. Reifying an environment can entail the capture ...

Fluorescent amino acids: modular building blocks for the assembly of new tools for chemical biology.

Fluorescence spectroscopy is a powerful tool for probing complex biological processes. The ubiquity of peptide-protein and protein-protein interactions in these processes has made them important targets for fluorescence labeling, and to allow sensitive readout of information concerning location, interactions with other biomolecules, and macromolecular dynamics. This review describes recent adva...
