The ability to safely and efficiently transfer foreign DNA into cells is a fundamental goal in
biotechnology. Toward this end, rapid advances have recently been made in our …

Plasmonic structures can be constructed from precise numbers of well-defined metal
nanoparticles that are held together with molecular linkers, templates or spacers. Such structures …

Proteins are important biomaterials and are generally produced in living cells. Here, we show
a novel DNA hydrogel that is capable of producing functional proteins without any living …

Metamaterials are artificial substances that are structurally engineered to have properties not
typically found in nature. To date, almost all metamaterials have been made from inorganic …

DNA possesses many desirable chemical/physical properties as a polymeric material. With
the myriad of tools available to manipulate DNA 1 , there is great potential for using DNA as a …

Background In the early stages of the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in
Hubei, China, the local health-care system was overwhelmed. Physicians and nurses who …

Developing high‐performance and cost‐effective bifunctional electrocatalysts for large‐scale
water electrolysis is desirable but remains a significant challenge. Most existing nano‐ and …
