Herein, we describe the bromomethyl acyl boronate linchpin--an enabling reagent for the condensation-driven assembly of novel bis(heteroaryl) motifs. This building block is readily accessible from commercially available starting materials. A variety of 2-amino- and 2-methylpyridines were reacted with MIDA-protected bromomethyl acylboronate to afford 2-boryl imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine and 2-boryl indolizine derivatives, respectively, in excellent yields. Subsequent condensation with hydroxyamidines and hydrazonamides converted the intermediate heterocycles into novel boron-containing bis(heteroaryl) units characterized by high thermal stability.

Hedgehog (Hh) morphogen governs embryonic development and tissue homeostasis through the Ci/Gli family transcription factors. Here we report that Hh induces phase separation of the fused (Fu)/Ulk family kinases to allosterically regulate Ci/Gli. We find that Hh-induced phosphorylation of Fu/Ulk3 promotes SUMOylation of their inverted phosphorylation-dependent SUMOylation motifs.

Protein conformation and cell compartmentalization are fundamental concepts and subjects of vast scientific endeavors. In the last two decades, we have witnessed exciting advances that unveiled the conjunction of these concepts. An avalanche of studies highlighted the central role of biomolecular condensates in membraneless subcellular compartmentalization that permits the spatiotemporal organization and regulation of myriads of simultaneous biochemical reactions and macromolecular interactions.

Biomolecular condensation driven by liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is key to assembly of membraneless organelles in numerous crucial pathways. It is largely unknown how cellular structures or components spatiotemporally regulate LLPS and condensate formation. Here we reveal that cytoskeletal dynamics can control the condensation of p62 bodies comprising the autophagic adaptor p62/SQSTM1 and poly-ubiquitinated cargos.

Microencapsulation is a fundamental concept behind a wide range of daily applications ranging from paints, adhesives, and pesticides to targeted drug delivery, transport of vaccines, and self-healing concretes. The beauty of microfluidics to generate microcapsules arises from the capability of fabricating monodisperse and micrometer-scale droplets, which can lead to microcapsules/particles with fine-tuned control over size, shape, and hierarchical structure, as well as high reproducibility, efficient material usage, and high-throughput manipulation. The introduction of supramolecular chemistry, such as host-guest interactions, endows the resultant microcapsules with stimuli-responsiveness and self-adjusting capabilities, and facilitates hierarchical microstructures with tunable stability and porosity, leading to the maturity of current microencapsulation industry.
