This communication provides a facile method for distributing and dispersing molecules within a molecular template. Using the self-assembled template of oligo(phenylene-ethynylene) (OPE), organic molecules such as coronene (COR) and biomolecules such as tripeptide are controllably distributed and dispersed within this molecular template on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces. COR molecules were controllably distributed into various regular arrays by simply adjusting the molecular molar ratio, while tripeptide molecules were uniformly positioned at the vacancies of the OPE template.

Autogene cevumeran with or without atezolizumab in advanced solid tumors: a phase 1 trial.

Effective targeting of somatic cancer mutations to enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy requires an individualized approach. Autogene cevumeran is a uridine messenger RNA lipoplex-based individualized neoantigen-specific immunotherapy designed from tumor-specific somatic mutation data obtained from tumor tissue of each individual patient to stimulate T cell responses against up to 20 neoantigens. This ongoing phase 1 study evaluated autogene cevumeran as monotherapy (n = 30) and in combination with atezolizumab (n = 183) in pretreated patients with advanced solid tumors.

Gold nanobowls (AuNBs) synthesized by the template-free method were deposited on graphene oxide (GO) to obtain an ultrasensitive surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platform for folic acid (FA) detection. GO was conditioned in aqueous solutions at various pH values to optimize the adsorption of the FA molecule and the intensity of the SERS signal. It was found that the conditioning procedure influences the orientation of FA on the SERS supports and the quality of the spectra in result.

The γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC) is a structural template for controlled nucleation of microtubules from α/β-tubulin heterodimers. At the cytoplasmic side of the yeast spindle pole body, the CM1-containing receptor protein Spc72 promotes γ-TuRC assembly from seven γ-tubulin small complexes (γ-TuSCs) and recruits the microtubule polymerase Stu2, yet their molecular interplay remains unclear. Here, we determine the cryo-EM structure of the Candida albicans cytoplasmic nucleation unit at 3.

In this work, a fast signal amplification system mediated by self-replicating catalytic hairpin self-assembly (SCHA) was established for microRNA-155 using near-infrared DNA-Ag Nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs) as fluorescence signal output. Among them, two fission target-like DNA sequences are merged into two hairpin DNA H1 and H2, and the AgNCs template sequence is designed at the sticky end of H1 and H2. The target can be recycled in the system to form a double-stranded DNA structure (H1-H2), which will detach the H1/H2-AgNCs from the surface of the polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy NPs) and cause the near-infrared fluorescence signal of DNA-AgNCs to be restored.
