Plastic disposal has become a serious environmental and social problem. Mechanical recycling of waste plastics is the most widely adopted strategy to address this issue, but if used to recycle mixed plastics, it usually requires the addition of amphiphilic block copolymers. Polyolefins account for almost half of all synthetic plastics, making them ubiquitous in the plastic waste stream. Within this

These studies reveal the first structure of Clostridiumacetobutylicum alcohol dehydrogenase (CaADH), a protein exhibiting remarkable substrate promiscuity and stereochemical fidelity. The CaADH enzyme is utilized here for synthesizing 20 potential aryl isoserine side chains for the Taxotère family of tubulin‐binding chemotherapeutics. The approach involves dynamic reductive kinetic resolution (DYRKR)

Porphyrin and phthalocyanine‐based covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as versatile scaffolds for developing high‐performance photo‐ and electrocatalysts. By enabling precise anchoring of metal species onto their cores, these COFs allow for meticulous tuning of their chemical and electronic properties, facilitating single‐atom distribution and achieving outstanding catalytic performance

The rational, function‐driven design of advanced inorganic functional materials remains a significant challenge, primarily attributed to their inherently complex and highly connected three‐dimensional frameworks of most oxide‐based systems. Herein, we report a “dual chemical scissors” strategy that synergistically combines the effects of fluoride ions and stereochemically active lone pairs to precisely

Bio‐based polyurethanes are promising sustainable elastomers whose polymeric network structure has a decisive impact on their properties. However, existing bio‐based polyurethanes face challenges in simultaneously enhancing mechanical strength and toughness. Inspired by the multi‐level heterogeneous structure of articular cartilage, we propose a bionic design strategy of rigid‐flexible coupled supramolecular

DNA‐based molecular probes are essential tools for visualizing and quantifying mechanotransduction at the single‐molecule level. However, their application in live‐cell environments is severely limited by DNase‐mediated degradation, which shortens probe lifespan and introduces false‐positive signals. Here, we present a decoy DNA strategy where an excess of unmodified double‐stranded DNA competitively

Achieving pure organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials is of great interest due to their applications in optoelectronics. However, improving RTP in pure organic materials by controlling triplet excitons is challenging due to their complex relaxation processes. Therefore, exploring effective strategies to modulate triplet excitons is crucial. Herein, we propose a N‐B‐N isomerization

Presently, there is a notable interest in poly‐Lewis acids (PLAs), their host‐guest chemistry and their application in catalytic processes. The present study combines PLAs with redox‐active dibenzo[a,e]cyclooctatetraene (dbCOT) units. dbCOT‐based PLAs can be planarised by a two‐electron reduction. The molecular structures of the reduced PLAs, studied by sc‐XRD experiments and DFT calculations, show

The methanol‐to‐olefins process produces mixtures of ethylene and propylene, driving demand for high‐performance separation materials. We present HOF‐ZJNU‐3, a hydrogen‐bonded organic framework built from an expanded BTB (4,4’,4’’‐benzene‐1,3,5‐triyl‐tribenzoate) linker, featuring the highest catenation degree observed in BTB‐based HOFs. This unique architecture confers good stability under solvent

Although language models can help to accelerate systematic reviews, a fully automated system is still some way off.

Ancient proteins and calcified dental plaque identify heavy-browed fossil from China as a Denisovan.

Suboptimal vaccine uptake is a worldwide public health issue. We need (i) to develop interventional population health research on vaccine uptake and (ii) to ensure better use of the research results by public health authorities before developing and implementing a national strategy.

Climate change may amplify the frequency and severity of supply-demand mismatches in future power systems with high shares of wind and solar energy1,2. Here, we use a dispatch optimization model to assess potential increases in hourly costs associated with such climate-intensified gaps under fixed, high penetrations of wind and solar generation.

replying to: Y. Fialko & Y. Kaneko. Nature https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-09117-5 (2025). In Lee et al.1, we found that creeping faults correlate with well-aligned fault networks and locked, seismogenic faults correlate with fault-network misalignment. We suggested that these observations could be caused by geometric locking that is distinct from standard fault stability criteria based on rate-and-state2
