As an information-bearing biomacromolecule, DNA is encoded in base-4, where each residue site can be occupied by any one of four nucleobases. Mimicking the information dense, sequence-selective hybridization of DNA, we demonstrate two orthogonal dynamic covalent interactions to effect the selective assembly of molecular ladders and grids from base-4-encoded oligo(peptoid)s.
作为一种信息承载生物大分子,DNA 以碱基 4 编码,其中每个残基位点可以被四个碱基中的任意一个占据。模拟 DNA 密集的、序列选择性的杂交,我们展示了两种正交的动态共价相互作用,以从碱基 4 编码的寡肽中有效地选择性组装分子梯和网格。
