A bioinspired nanoarchitectonics design strategy is adapted to construct 2D sheets of promising n-type organic semiconductor naphthalene diimide (NDI) with tunable size, shape and optoelectronic properties. Modulation of ...

The interfacing of aromatic molecules with biomolecules to design functional molecular materials is a promising area of research. Intermolecular interactions determine the performance of these materials and therefore, ...

Herein, the conventional and unconventional hydrogen bonding potential of adenine in APA for double zipper helical assembly of deoxyoligonucleotides is demonstrated under ambient conditions. The quantum mechanical calculations ...

A major challenge in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) is its timely diagnosis. Amyloid beta (A beta) aggregates have been proposed as the most viable biomarker for the diagnosis of AD. Here, we demonstrate hemicyanine-based ...

In this Communication, a molecular beacon-based DNA switch (LMB) is developed as an efficient and reversible pH sensing probe. Remarkably, LMB exhibited reversible structural transition between the closed (molecular beacon) ...

The stringent processes of natural selection and evolution have enabled extraordinary structure function properties of biomolecules. Specifically, the archetypal designs of biomolecules, such as amino acids, nucleobases, ...

Accumulation of amyloid beta (A beta) peptide and its aggregates in the human brain is considered as one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The polymorphic oligomers and fully grown fibrilar aggregates of A beta ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a key reactive oxygen species and a messenger in cellular signal transduction apart from playing a vital role in many biological processes in living organisms. In this article, we present phenyl ...

Cyclic peptoids are potential candidates for diverse biological activities. However, applications of cyclic peptoids are limited by the synthetic difficulties, conformational flexibility of large cyclic peptoids, and lack ...
