Maximizing the molecular information density requires simultaneously functionalizing distinct monomers and their coupling connections. However, current synthesis generally focuses on distinct monomers rather than coupling reactions because the multistep reactions significantly escalate the synthetic complexity in an exponential increase. Here, we report the two-dimensional nanoarchitectures (2DNs) of end-on oligomers, with versatile molecular structures and negative differential resistance (NDR), synthesized by programmed and surface-initiated step electrosynthesis based on the simultaneous utilization of six reactions including cross- and homocouplings. The resulting vertically end-on oligomers, with similar values in thickness and molecular length, as crystalline 2DNs, exhibit subnanometer uniformity, ultrahigh compressive modulus of 40 GPa, and low-bias NDR at 0.13 V with an ultralow power consumption of down to 0.05 nW/μm. This highly controlled electrosynthesis provides a unique dimension to enhance the structural diversity of molecular 2D nanomaterials for high-density and low-power consumption electronics.

Kinetochores form the link between chromosomes and microtubules of the mitotic spindle. The heterodecameric Dam1 complex (Dam1c) is a major component of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae outer kinetochore, assembling into 3 MDa-sized microtubule-embracing rings, but how ring assembly is specifically initiated in vivo remains to be understood. Here, we describe a molecular pathway that provides local control of ring assembly during the establishment of sister kinetochore bi-orientation.

We present a model of the charge transport in thin film organic field-effect transistors with the active channel made of linear conjugated chains stacked on the substrate with end-on-orientation. The transport was simulated in a box consisting of 25 polymer chains, in which the delocalized quantum orbital eigenstates of the on-chain hole distribution were calculated. The inter-chain charge transfer was solved semi-classically.

The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a supramolecular protein assembly that mediates homologous chromosome synapsis during meiosis. This zipper-like structure assembles in a continuous manner between homologous chromosome axes, enforcing a 100-nm separation along their entire length and providing the necessary three-dimensional framework for cross-over formation. The mammalian SC comprises eight components-synaptonemal complex protein 1-3 (SYCP1-3), synaptonemal complex central element protein 1-3 (SYCE1-3), testis-expressed 12 (TEX12), and six6 opposite strand transcript 1 (SIX6OS1)-arranged in transverse and longitudinal structures.

Neutral DNA analogs as probes for the detection of target oligomers on the biosensors based on the field-effect transistor (FET) configuration feature advantages in the enhancement of sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio. Herein, we used phosphate-methylated nucleotides to synthesize two partially neutralized chimeric DNA products and a fully neutralized DNA sequence and adopted a regular DNA oligomer as probes on the polycrystalline silicon nanowire (NW) FET devices. The sequences of two neutralized chimeric DNAs close to the 5' end were alternately modified with the phosphate-methylated nucleotides, and all probes were immobilized via their 5' end on the NW surface.
