DNA Nanotechnology for Application in Targeted Protein Degradation.

DNA is a kind of flexible and versatile biomaterial for constructing nanostructures and nanodevices. Due to high biocompatibility and programmability and easy modification and fabrication, DNA nanotechnology has emerged as a powerful tool for application in intracellular targeted protein degradation. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in the design and mechanism of targeted protein degradation technologies such as protein hydrolysis targeted chimeras, lysosomal targeted chimeras, and autophagy based protein degradation.

N-rich hypercrosslinked porous polymers for highly efficient preconcentration and sensitive detection of chlorophenols.

Three novel N-rich hypercrosslinked porous polymers (NHCP1, NHCP2, and NHCP3) were facilely developed using Friedel-Crafts alkylation. NHCP1 with a remarkably large surface area (2066 m g) showed the best adsorption performance for chlorophenol pollutants. A sensitive and simple method was developed by using NHCP1 as a sorbent for solid-phase extraction to preconcentrate several chlorophenols in honey, water, and peach beverage samples followed by determination using a high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detector.
