The mechanical bond in biological systems

Sophie R. Beeren et al.

Summary: The field of mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) has seen rapid advancement in recent years, particularly in materials, sensing, and catalysis. However, their potential in biology and biomedicine has been limited due to synthesis difficulties, poor solubility, and stability in biological media. Recent advances have enabled a broader integration of MIMs in biology, allowing for unique functional advantages. This article summarizes recent advancements in the application of small-molecule, biologically derived, and polymeric MIMs in biology, highlighting potential synergies for future exploration.

Distinctive features and challenges in catenane chemistry

Ho Yu Au-Yeung et al.

Summary: From an aesthetic molecule to a building block for molecular machines, catenanes and related mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) continue to attract interest in various research fields. Catenane chemistry is closely related to rotaxanes and knots, involving concepts like mechanical bonds, chemical topology, and co-conformation unique to these molecules. However, there are fundamental differences between the chemistry of catenanes and rotaxanes/knots due to their different topological structures and mechanical bond properties, although the boundaries are sometimes blurred. Clearly distinguishing these differences is important to understand the chemistry of catenanes and explore new opportunities from mechanical bonds.

A tape-reading molecular ratchet

Yansong Ren et al.

Summary: Cells process information similar to Turing machines, reading data from molecular tapes and translating it into outputs. However, synthetic small-molecule machines that can read and write information stored on artificial molecular tapes are still elusive. This study introduces a molecular ratchet system where a crown ether is transported onto an encoded molecular strand by a chemical fuel pulse. The crown ether is then transported through the tape compartments and changes conformation based on the binding sites, allowing the stereochemical information on the tape to be read out as a string of digits.

Rotaxane-Based Dual Function Mechanophores Exhibiting Reversible and Irreversible Responses

Tatsuya Muramatsu et al.

Summary: The article introduces rotaxane-based supramolecular mechanophores that exhibit both reversible and irreversible fluorescence changes, triggered by exploiting molecular shuttling and force-induced dethreading. The design allows the luminophore to slide away from the quencher when force is applied, resulting in fluorescence, but if the force is too high, irreversible changes occur when the luminophore-carrying ring slips past the stopper and dethreading happens.
