Abstract
The photochemical deprotection of structurally engineered o-nitrobenzylphosphate-caged hairpin nucleic acids is introduced as a versatile method to evolve constitutional dynamic networks, CDNs. The photogenerated CDNs, in the presence of fuel strands, interact with auxiliary CDNs, resulting in their dynamically equilibrated reconfiguration. By modification of the constituents associated with the auxiliary CDNs with glucose oxidase (GOx)/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) cofactor, the photogenerated CDN drives the orthogonal operation upregulated/downregulated operation of the GOx/HRP and LDH/NAD+ biocatalytic cascade in the conjugate mixture of auxiliary CDNs. Also, the photogenerated CDN was applied to control the reconfiguration of coupled CDNs, leading to upregulated/downregulated formation of the antithrombin aptamer units, resulting in the dictated inhibition of thrombin activity (fibrinogen coagulation). Moreover, a reaction module consisting of GOx/HRP-modified o-nitrobenzyl phosphate-caged DNA hairpins, photoresponsive caged auxiliary duplexes, and nickase leads upon irradiation to the emergence of a transient, dissipative CDN activating in the presence of two alternate auxiliary triggers, achieving transient operation of up- and downregulated GOx/HRP biocatalytic cascades.

Abstract
DNA frameworks, consisting of constitutional dynamic networks (CDNs) undergoing fuel-driven reconfiguration, are coupled to a dissipative reaction module that triggers the reconfigured CDNs into a transient intermediate CDNs recovering the parent CDN state. Biocatalytic cascades consisting of the glucose oxidase (GOx)/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) couple or the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) couple are tethered to the constituents of two different CDNs, allowing the CDNs-guided operation of the spatially confined GOx/HRP or LDH/NAD+ biocatalytic cascades. By applying two different fuel triggers, the directional transient CDN-guided upregulation/downregulation of the two biocatalytic cascades are demonstrated. By mixing the GOx/HRP-biocatalyst-modified CDN with the LDH/NAD+-biocatalyst-functionalized CDN, a composite CDN is assembled. Triggering the composite CDN with two different fuel strands results in orthogonal transient upregulation of the GOx/HRP cascade and transient downregulation of the LDH/NAD+ cascade or vice versa. The transient CDNs-guided biocatalytic cascades are computationally simulated by kinetic models, and the computational analyses allow the prediction of the performance of transient biocatalytic cascades under different auxiliary conditions. The concept of orthogonally triggered temporal, transient, biocatalytic cascades by means of CDN frameworks is applied to design an orthogonally operating CDN for the temporal upregulated or downregulated transient thrombin-induced coagulation of fibrinogen to fibrin.

Abstract
The enzyme-free catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) process is introduced as a functional reaction module for guided, high-throughput, emergence, and evolution of constitutional dynamic networks, CDNs, from a set of nucleic acids. The process is applied to assemble networks of variable complexities, functionalities, and spatial confinement, and the systems provide possible mechanistic pathways for the evolution of dynamic networks under prebiotic conditions. Subjecting a set of four or six structurally engineered hairpins to a promoter P1 leads to the CHA-guided emergence of a [2 × 2] CDN or the evolution of a [3 × 3] CDN, respectively. Reacting of a set of branched three-arm DNA-hairpin-functionalized junctions to the promoter strand activates the CHA-induced emergence of a three-dimensional (3D) CDN framework emulating native gene regulatory networks. In addition, activation of a two-layer CHA cascade circuit or a cross-catalytic CHA circuit and cascaded driving feedback-driven evolution of CDNs are demonstrated. Also, subjecting a four-hairpin-modified DNA tetrahedron nanostructure to an auxiliary promoter strand simulates the evolution of a dynamically equilibrated DNA tetrahedron-based CDN that undergoes secondary fueled dynamic reconfiguration. Finally, the effective permeation of DNA tetrahedron structures into cells is utilized to integrate the four-hairpin-functionalized tetrahedron reaction module into cells. The spatially localized miRNA-triggered CHA evolution and reconfiguration of CDNs allowed the logic-gated imaging of intracellular RNAs. Beyond the bioanalytical applications of the systems, the study introduces possible mechanistic pathways for the evolution of functional networks under prebiotic conditions.

Abstract
Nucleic acid networks conjugated to native enzymes and supramolecular DNA nanostructures modified with enzymes or DNAzymes act as functional reaction modules for guiding dynamic catalytic transformations. These systems are exemplified with the assembly of constitutional dynamic networks (CDNs) composed of nucleic acid-functionalized enzymes, as constituents, undergoing triggered structural reconfiguration, leading to dynamically switched biocatalytic cascades. By coupling two nucleic acid/enzyme networks, the intercommunicated feedback-driven dynamic biocatalytic operation of the system is demonstrated. In addition, the tailoring of a nucleic acid/enzyme reaction network driving a dissipative, transient, biocatalytic cascade is introduced as a model system for out-of-equilibrium dynamically modulated biocatalytic transformation in nature. Also, supramolecular nucleic acid machines or DNA nanostructures, modified with DNAzyme or enzyme constituents, act as functional reaction modules driving temporal dynamic catalysis. The design of dynamic supramolecular machines is exemplified with the introduction of an interlocked two-ring catenane device that is dynamically reversibly switched between two states operating two different DNAzymes, and with the tailoring of a DNA-tweezers device functionalized with enzyme/DNAzyme constituents that guides the dynamic ON/OFF operation of a biocatalytic cascade by opening and closing the molecular device. In addition, DNA origami nanostructures provide functional scaffolds for the programmed positioning of enzymes or DNAzyme for the switchable operation of catalytic transformations. This is introduced by the tailored functionalization of the edges of origami tiles with nucleic acids guiding the switchable formation of DNAzyme catalysts through the dimerization/separation of the tiles. In addition, the programmed deposition of two-enzyme/cofactor constituents on the origami raft allowed the dynamic photochemical activation of the cofactor-mediated biocatalytic cascade on the spatially biocatalytic assembly on the scaffold. Furthermore, photoinduced "mechanical" switchable and reversible unlocking and closing of nanoholes in the origami frameworks allow the "ON" and "OFF" operation of DNAzyme units in the nanoholes, confined environments. The future challenges and potential applications of dynamic nucleic acid/enzyme and DNAzyme conjugates are discussed in the conclusion paragraph.

Abstract
Mimicking photosynthesis using artificial systems, as a means for solar energy conversion and green fuel generation, is one of the holy grails of modern science. This perspective presents recent advances towards developing artificial photosynthetic systems. In one approach, native photosystems are interfaced with electrodes to yield photobioelectrochemical cells that transform light energy into electrical power. This is exemplified by interfacing photosystem I (PSI) and photosystem II (PSII) as an electrically contacted assembly mimicking the native Z-scheme, and by the assembly of an electrically wired PSI/glucose oxidase biocatalytic conjugate on an electrode support. Illumination of the functionalized electrodes led to light-induced generation of electrical power, or to the generation of photocurrents using glucose as the fuel. The second approach introduces supramolecular photosensitizer nucleic acid/electron acceptor complexes as functional modules for effective photoinduced electron transfer stimulating the subsequent biocatalyzed generation of NADPH or the Pt-nanoparticle-catalyzed evolution of molecular hydrogen. Application of the DNA machineries for scaling-up the photosystems is demonstrated. A third approach presents the integration of artificial photosynthetic modules into dynamic nucleic acid networks undergoing reversible reconfiguration or dissipative transient operation in the presence of auxiliary triggers. Control over photoinduced electron transfer reactions and photosynthetic transformations by means of the dynamic networks is demonstrated.

Abstract
Two different drug micro-carriers consisting of doxorubicin-dextran (DOX-D)- and camptothecin-modified carboxymethyl cellulose (CPT-CMC)-loaded nucleic acid-stabilized microcapsules, MC-1 and MC-2, or two different nanocarriers consisting of nucleic-acid-locked doxorubicin (DOX)- and camptothecin (CPT)-loaded metal-organic framework nanoparticles, NMOF-1 and NMOF-2, are coupled to auxiliary constitutional dynamic networks, CDNs, for the triggered release of the drugs. CDN "S" composed of four constituents AA'', AB', BA', and BB', and two hairpin structures, H1 and H2, leads to the CDN "S"-guided unlocking of the MC-1/MC-2 carriers and the release of DOX-D and CPT-CMC or of the NMOF-1 and NMOF-2 carriers that release DOX and CPT, respectively. The unlocking processes are activated by the cleavage of H1 and H2 by BB' and BA', respectively, to yield fragmented strands that unlock the gating units of the microcapsules/NMOFs carriers. In the presence of miRNA-155 or miRNA-124, dictated orthogonal reconfiguration of CDN "S" into CDN "X" or "Y" proceeds. The miRNA-155 stimulates the reconfiguration of CDN "S" to CDN "X", where AA' and BB' are upregulated, and AB' and BA' are downregulated, leading to the enhanced release of DOX-D or DOX from the microcapsule/NMOFs carriers, and to the concomitant inhibition of the release of CPT-CMC or CPT from the respective carriers. Similarly, the miRNA-124-triggered reconfiguration of CDN "S" to CDN "Y" results in the BA'-guided cleavage of H2 and the preferred release of CPT-CMC or CPT from the respective carriers. The miRNA-triggered CDN-driven unlocking of the carriers stimulates the amplified and selective release of the drugs from the microcapsules/NMOFs carriers.

Abstract
Constitutional dynamic networks (CDNs) consisting of DNA tetrahedra allow the dynamically triggered adaptive control over the compositions and structures of the constituents. In one system, a CDN consisting of four tetrahedra constituents is orthogonally triggered by two alternative triggers, T1 or T2, to reconfigure into two different CDNs, revealing adaptive control-over the tetrahedra compositions in the two CDNs. In the presence of the counter triggers T1' or T2', the parent CDN is regenerated. In the second system, the assembly of a CDN consisting of four dimeric tetrahedra exhibiting variable sizes and shapes is described. The orthogonal triggering of the CDN by two different triggers T3 or T4, leads to the adaptive reconfiguration of the CDN into new equilibrated CDNs exhibiting control-over the compositions and shapes of the dimeric tetrahedra comprising the CDNs. Mg2+-ion-dependent DNAzyme units conjugated to the tetrahedra nanostructures and complementary electrophoretic experiments provide means to quantitatively evaluate the compositions of the different CDN systems. By the functionalization of the four-tetrahedra-based CDN system with two fluorophor donor-acceptor pairs and the orthogonal reconfiguration of the CDN in the presence of two alternative triggers, the control-over the FRET functions of the CDN systems is demonstrated.

Abstract
The evolution of networks is a fundamental unresolved issue in developing the area of systems chemistry. We introduce a versatile rewiring mechanism that leads to the emergence of nucleic-acid-based constitutional dynamic networks (CDNs). A two-component constituent AA' functionalized with a Mg2+ -ion-dependent DNAzyme activator unit forms a complex with an intact hairpin HBB' composed of B and B' sequences. Cleavage of HBB' leads to the two-component constituent BB', and its rewiring with AA' yields CDN X composed of the equilibrated constituents AA', AB', BA', and BB'. In analogy, subjecting AA' to an intact hairpin HCC' leads to the formation of CDN Y consisting of AA', AC', CA', and CC'. Subjecting AA' to the mixture of HBB' and HCC' evolves the [3×3] CDN Z, composed of nine constituents, thus demonstrating hierarchical adaptive properties. Furthermore, the DNAzyme units associated with the constituents are applied to tailor emerging catalytic functions from the different CDNs.

Abstract
We describe a templating/covalent capture strategy that enables photochemical formation of 8 cyclobutanes in one noncovalent assembly. This process was characterized by experiment and quantum mechanical/molecular mechanics (ONIOM) calculations. Thus, KI and 16 units of 5'-cinnamate guanosine form a G-quadruplex where C=C π bonds in neighboring G4 -quartets are separated by 3.3 Å, enabling [2+2] photocycloaddition in solution. This reaction is high-yielding (>90 %), regio- and diastereoselective. Since all components are in dynamic equilibrium this photocycloaddition is catalytic in K+ .
