Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology is an innovative strategy for cancer therapy, which, however, suffers from poor delivery and limited capability protein of interest (POI) degradation. Here, we report a the in situ formulation antineoplastic Supra-PROTACs via intracellular sulfatase-responsive assembly peptides. Coassembling sulfated peptide with two ligands binding to ubiquitin VHL Bcl-xL leads formation pro-Supra-PROTAC, which ratio rationally optimized based on their...

Implementing dissipative assembly in living systems is meaningful for creation of materials or even artificial life. However, intracellular remains scarce and significantly impeded by the challenges lying precisely operating chemical reaction cycles under complex physiological conditions. Here, we develop organelle-mediated self-assembly peptides cells fueled GSH, via design a mitochondrion-targeting redox-responsive hexapeptide. While hexapeptide undergoes efficient self-assembly, addition...

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins and nucleic acids into membraneless organelles (MLOs) plays a critical role in sustaining fundamental physiological processes. However, creating artificial coacervate droplets living cells from exogenous molecules modulating the functions MLOs remain challenging. To address this concern, here we reported enzyme-induced situ peptides targeting MLO stress granule (SG) for enhanced cancer chemotherapy. The peptide YSO4F containing two sulfated...

The presence of disordered region or large interacting surface within proteins significantly challenges the development targeted drugs, commonly known as "undruggable" issue. Here, we report a heterogeneous peptide-protein assembling strategy to selectively phosphorylate proteins, thereby activating necroptotic signaling pathway and promoting cell necroptosis. Inspired by structures natural necrosomes formed receptor protein kinases (RIPK) 1 3, kinase-biomimetic peptides are rationally...

Bismuth porous nanosheets (Bi PNSs) were synthesized via a three-step process in the absence of any surfactants and templates. As catalyst for electrochemical CO2 electroreduction, Bi PNSs show high selectivity to formic acid with maximum Faraday efficiency 95.31% maintain more than 80% over wide voltage range 1100 mV. The excellent performance was found originate from abundant kink sites on pore walls, which have appropriate affinity intermediates reduce energy barriers electroreduction....

Surface PEGylation is essential for preventing non-specific binding of biomolecules when silica nanoparticles are utilized in vivo applications. Methods installing poly(ethylene glycol) on a surface have been widely explored but varies from study to study. Because there lack satisfactory method evaluating the properties after PEGylation, prepared not fully characterized before use. In some cases, even non-PEGylated were produced, which unfortunately recognized by end-user. this work,...
