Abstract
The non-canonical amino acid adamantylglycine (Ada) is introduced into peptides to allow high-affinity binding to cucurbit[7]uril (CB7). Introduction of Ada into a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) sequence had minimal influence on the membrane transport, yet enabled up- and down-regulation of the membrane transport activity.

Abstract
Identifying proteins at organelle contact sites, such as mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAM), is essential for understanding vital cellular processes, yet challenging due to their dynamic nature. Here we report "OrthoID", a proteomic method utilizing engineered enzymes, TurboID and APEX2, for the biotinylation (Bt) and adamantylation (Ad) of proteins close to the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER), respectively, in conjunction with high-affinity binding pairs, streptavidin-biotin (SA-Bt) and cucurbit[7]uril-adamantane (CB[7]-Ad), for selective orthogonal enrichment of Bt- and Ad-labeled proteins. This approach effectively identifies protein candidates associated with the ER-mitochondria contact, including LRC59, whose roles at the contact site were-to the best of our knowledge-previously unknown, and tracks multiple protein sets undergoing structural and locational changes at MAM during mitophagy. These findings demonstrate that OrthoID could be a powerful proteomics tool for the identification and analysis of spatiotemporal proteins at organelle contact sites and revealing their dynamic behaviors in vital cellular processes.

Abstract
Adamantane, a staple in medicinal chemistry, recently became a cornerstone of a supramolecular host-guest drug delivery system, ADA/CB[n]. Owing to a good fit between the adamantane cage and the host cavity of the cucurbit[n]uril macrocycle, formed strong inclusion complexes find applications in drug delivery and controlled drug release. Note that the cucurbit[n]uril host is not solely a delivery vehicle of the ADA/CB[n] system but rather influences the bioactivity and bioavailability of drug molecules and can tune drug properties. Namely, as host-guest interactions are capable of changing the intrinsic properties of the guest molecule, inclusion complexes can become more soluble, bioavailable and more resistant to metabolic conditions compared to individual non-complexed molecules. Such synergistic effects have implications for practical bioapplicability of this complex system and provide a new viewpoint to therapy, beyond the traditional single drug molecule approach. By achieving a balance between guest encapsulation and release, the ADA/CB[n] system has also found use beyond just drug delivery, in fields like bioanalytics, sensing assays, bioimaging, etc. Thus, chemosensing in physiological conditions, indicator displacement assays, in vivo diagnostics and hybrid nanostructures are just some recent examples of the ADA/CB[n] applicability, be it for displacements purposes or as cargo vehicles.

Abstract
Compared with the normal assembly/disassembly approaches, enzyme-instructed host-guest assembly/disassembly strategies due to their superior biocompatibility and specificity for specific substrates, can more effectively and precisely release molecules at lesions for reflecting in vivo biological events. Specifically, due to the over-expression of enzymes in specific tissues, the assembly/disassembly processes can directly occur on the pathological sites (or regions of interest), thus these enzyme-instructed processes are widely and effectively used for disease treatment or precise bioimaging. Based on it, we introduce the concept and major strategies of enzyme-instructed host-guest assembly/disassembly, illustrate their importance in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, and review their advances in biomedical applications. Further, the challenges of these strategies in the clinic and future tendencies are also prospected.

Abstract
We synthesized a series of [(l-Ala)x-co-(l-Thr succinate)y] (PATs), which are analogous to natural antifreezing glycoprotein with the structure of [l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Thr disaccharide]n, by varying the composition and degree of succinylation while fixing their molecular weight (Mn) and Ala/Thr ratio at approximately 10-12 kDa and 2:1, respectively. We investigated their ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI), ice nucleation inhibition (INI), dynamic ice shaping (DIS), thermal hysteresis (TH), and protein cryopreservation activities. Both IRI and INI activities were greater for PATs with higher l-Ala content (PATs-3 and PATs-4) than those with lower l-Ala content (PATs-1 and PATs-2). DIS activity with faceted crystal growth was clearly observed in PATs-2 and PATs-4 with a high degree of succinylation. TH was small with <0.1 °C for all PATs and slightly greater for PATs with a high l-Ala content. Except for PATs-1, the protein (lactate dehydrogenase, LDH) stabilization activity was excellent for all PATs studied, maintaining LDH activity as high as that of fresh LDH even after 15 freeze-thaw cycles. To conclude, the cryo-active biomimetic PATs were synthesized by controlling the l-Ala content and degree of succinylation. Our results showed that PATs with an l-Ala content of 65-70% and degree of succinylation of 12-19% exhibited the cryo-activities of IRI, INI, and DIS, and particularly promising properties for the cryoprotection of LDH protein.

Abstract
The pursuit of synthetic receptors with high binding affinities has long been a central focus in supramolecular chemistry, driven by their significant practical relevance in various fields. Despite the numerous synthetic receptors that have been developed, most exhibit binding affinities in the micromolar range or lower. Only a few exceptional receptors achieve binding affinities exceeding 109 M-1 , and their substrate scopes remain rather limited. In this context, we introduce SC[5]A, a conjugated corral-shaped macrocycle functionalized with ten sulfate groups. Owing to its deep one-dimensional confined hydrophobic cavity and multiple sulfate groups, SC[5]A displays an extraordinarily high binding strength of up to 1011 M-1 towards several size-matched, rod-shaped organic dications in water. Besides, its conformation exhibits good adaptability, allowing it to encapsulate a wide range of other guests with diverse molecular sizes, shapes, and functionalities, exhibiting relatively strong affinities (Ka =106 -108 M-1 ). Additionally, we've explored the preliminary application of SC[5]A in alleviating blood coagulation induced by hexadimethrine bromide in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, the combination of ultrahigh binding affinities (towards complementary guests) and adaptive recognition capability (towards a wide range of functional guests) of SC[5]A positions it as exceptionally valuable for numerous practical applications.

Abstract
Cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n]) macrocycles (especially CB[5] to CB[8]) have shown exceptional attributes since their discovery in 2000. Their stability, water solubility, responsiveness to several stimuli, and remarkable binding properties have enabled a growing number of biological applications. Yet, soon after their discovery, the challenge of their functionalization was set. Nevertheless, after more than two decades, a myriad of CB[n] derivatives has been described, many of them used in cells or in vivo for advanced applications. This perspective summarizes key advances of this burgeoning field and points to the next opportunities and remaining challenges to fully express the potential of these fascinating macrocycles in biology and biomedical sciences.

Abstract
Over the past decade, remarkable advances have been witnessed in the development of small-molecule probes. These molecular tools have been widely applied for interrogating proteins, pathways and drug-target interactions in preclinical research. While novel structures and designs are commonly explored in probe development, the clinical translation of small-molecule probes remains limited, primarily due to safety and regulatory considerations. Recent synergistic developments - interfacing novel chemical probes with complementary analytical technologies - have introduced and expedited diverse biomedical opportunities to molecularly characterize targeted drug interactions directly in the human body or through accessible clinical specimens (e.g., blood and ascites fluid). These integrated developments thus offer unprecedented opportunities for drug development, disease diagnostics and treatment monitoring. In this review, we discuss recent advances in the structure and design of small-molecule probes with novel functionalities and the integrated development with imaging, proteomics and other emerging technologies. We further highlight recent applications of integrated small-molecule technologies for the molecular analysis of drug-target interactions, including translational applications and emerging opportunities for whole-body imaging, tissue-based measurement and blood-based analysis.

Abstract
Here we report the coupling of a cyclic peptide (VH4127) targeting the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor (LDLR) noncompetitively to cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) to develop a new kind of drug delivery system (DDS), namely, CB[7]-VH4127, with maintained binding affinity to the LDLR. To evaluate the uptake potential of this bismacrocyclic compound, another conjugate was prepared comprising a high-affinity group for CB[7] (adamantyl(Ada)-amine) coupled to the fluorescent tracker Alexa680 (A680). The resulting A680-Ada·CB[7]-VH4127 supramolecular complex demonstrated conserved LDLR-binding potential and improved LDLR-mediated endocytosis and intracellular accumulation potential in LDLR-expressing cells. The combination of two technologies, namely, monofunctionalized CB[7] and the VH4127 LDLR-targeting peptide, opens new avenues in terms of targeting and intracellular delivery to LDLR-expressing tissues or tumors. The versatile transport capacity of CB[7], known to bind a large spectrum of bioactive or functional compounds, makes this new DDS suitable for a wide range of therapeutic or imaging applications.

Abstract
Protein mutations alter protein-protein interactions that can lead to a number of illnesses. Mutations in lamin A (LMNA) have been reported to cause laminopathies. However, the proteins associated with the LMNA mutation have mostly remained unexplored. Herein, a new chemical tool for proximal proteomics is reported, developed by a combination of proximity chemical tagging and a bio-orthogonal supramolecular latching based on cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7])-based host-guest interactions. As this host-guest interaction acts as a noncovalent clickable motif that can be unclicked on-demand, this new chemical tool is exploited for reliable detection of the proximal proteins of LMNA and its mutant that causes laminopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Most importantly, a comparison study reveals, for the first time, mutant-dependent alteration in LMNA proteomic environments, which allows to identify putative laminopathic DCM-linked proteins including FOXJ3 and CELF2. This study demonstrates the feasibility of this chemical tool for reliable proximal proteomics, and its immense potential as a new research platform for discovering biomarkers associated with protein mutation-linked diseases.

Abstract
Receptor chromatography involves high-throughput separation and accurate drug screening based on specific drug-receptor recognition and affinity, which has been widely used to screen active compounds in complex samples. This review summarizes the immobilization methods for receptors from three aspects: random covalent immobilization methods, site-specific covalent immobilization methods and dual-target receptor chromatography.

Abstract
An iminium dication 1 was designed as a high-affinity and easily removable guest for cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]). X-ray crystallographic analysis shows that maximized N+···O═C ion-dipole interactions and perfect packing coefficient are responsible for the high affinity of 1 for CB[7] (Ka > 1011 M-1). Under alkaline conditions, included 1 in CB[7]·1 is hydrolyzed into 2,6-adamantanedione and pyrrolidine that can be fully removed by further extraction, enabling the recycling of CB[7] materials.

Abstract
Synthetic receptors are powerful tools for molecular recognition. They can bind to guests with high selectivity and affinity, and their structures are tunable and diversified. These features, plus the relatively low cost and high simplicity in synthesis and modification, support the feasibility of array-based molecular analysis with synthetic receptors for improved selectivity in the recognition of a wide range of targets. More attractively, host-guest interaction is reversible and guest displacement allows biocompatible and gentle release of the host-bound molecules, simplifying the stimulation designs needed to control analyte sensing, enrichment, and transportation. Here, we highlight a few recent advancements in using synthetic receptors for molecular analysis and manipulation, with the focus on macrocyclic receptors and their applications in displacement sensing, separation, imaging, and drug transport.

Abstract
In a three-dimensional (3D) representation, each protein molecule displays a specific pattern of chemical and topological features, which are altered during its misfolding and aggregation pathway. Generating a recognizable fingerprint from such features could provide an enticing approach not only to identify these biomolecules but also to gain clues regarding their folding state and the occurrence of pathologically lethal misfolded aggregates. We report here a universal strategy to generate a fluorescent fingerprint from biomolecules by employing the pan-selective molecular recognition feature of a cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) macrocyclic receptor. We implemented a direct sensing strategy by covalently tethering CB[7] with a library of fluorescent reporters. When CB[7] recognizes the chemical and geometrical features of a biomolecule, it brings the tethered fluorophore into the vicinity, concomitantly reporting the nature of its binding microenvironment through a change in their optical signature. The photophysical properties of the fluorophores allow a multitude of probing modes, while their structural features provide additional binding diversity, generating a distinct fluorescence fingerprint from the biomolecule. We first used this strategy to rapidly discriminate a diverse range of protein analytes. The macrocyclic sensor was then applied to probe conformational changes in the protein structure and identify the formation of oligomeric and fibrillar species from misfolded proteins. Notably, the sensor system allowed us to differentiate between different self-assembled forms of the disease-specific amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates and segregated them from other generic amyloid structures with a 100% identification accuracy. Ultimately, this sensor system predicted clinically relevant changes by fingerprinting serum samples from a cohort of pregnant women.

Abstract
Sortase A (SrtA)-mediated ligation, a popular method for protein labeling and semi-synthesis, is limited by its reversibility and dependence on the LPxTG motif, where "x" is any amino acid. Here, we report that SrtA can mediate the efficient and irreversible ligation of a protein/peptide containing a C-terminal thioester with another protein/peptide bearing an N-terminal Gly, with broad tolerance for a wide variety of LPxT-derived sequences. This strategy, the thioester-assisted SrtA-mediated ligation, enabled the expedient preparation of proteins bearing various N- or C-terminal labels, including post-translationally modified proteins such as the Ser139-phosphorylated histone H2AX and Lys9-methylated histone H3, with less dependence on the LPxTG motif. Our study validates the chemical modification of substrates as an effective means of augmenting the synthetic capability of existing enzymatic methods.

Abstract
![]()
Proximity
labeling can be defined as an enzymatic “in-cell”
chemical reaction that catalyzes the proximity-dependent modification
of biomolecules in live cells. Since the modified proteins can be
isolated and identified via mass spectrometry, this method has been
successfully utilized for the characterization of local proteomes
such as the sub-mitochondrial proteome and the proteome at membrane
contact sites, or spatiotemporal interactome information in live cells,
which are not “accessible” via conventional methods.
Currently, proximity labeling techniques can be applied not only for
local proteome mapping but also for profiling local RNA and DNA, in
addition to showing great potential for elucidating spatial cell–cell
interaction networks in live animal models. We believe that proximity
labeling has emerged as an essential tool in “spatiomics,”
that is, for the extraction of spatially distributed biological information
in a cell or organism. Proximity labeling is a multidisciplinary
chemical technique. For
a decade, we and other groups have engineered it for multiple applications
based on the modulation of enzyme chemistry, chemical probe design,
and mass analysis techniques that enable superior mapping results.
The technique has been adopted in biology and chemistry. This “in-cell”
reaction has been widely adopted by biologists who modified it into
an in vivo reaction in animal models. In our laboratory, we conducted
in vivo proximity labeling reactions in mouse models and could successfully
obtain the liver-specific secretome and muscle-specific mitochondrial
matrix proteome. We expect that proximity reaction can further contribute
to revealing tissue-specific localized molecular information in live
animal models. Simultaneously, chemists have also adopted the
concept and employed
chemical “photocatalysts” as artificial enzymes to develop
new proximity labeling reactions. Under light activation, photocatalysts
can convert the precursor molecules to the reactive species via electron
transfer or energy transfer and the reactive molecules can react with
proximal biomolecules within a definite lifetime in an aqueous solution.
To identify the modified biomolecules by proximity labeling, the modified
biomolecules should be enriched after lysis and sequenced using sequencing
tools. In this analysis step, the direct detection of modified residue(s)
on the modified proteins or nucleic acids can be the proof of their
labeling event by proximal enzymes or catalysts in the cell. In this
Account, we introduce the basic concept of proximity labeling and
the multidirectional advances in the development of this method. We
believe that this Account may facilitate further utilization and modification
of the method in both biological and chemical research communities,
thereby revealing unknown spatially distributed molecular or cellular
information or spatiome.

Abstract
![]()
Monoclonal antibodies
are the fastest growing class of therapeutics.
However, aggregation limits their shelf life and can lead to adverse
immune responses. Assessment and optimization of the long-term antibody
stability are therefore key challenges in the biologic drug development.
Here, we present a platform based on the analysis of temperature-dependent
aggregation data that can dramatically shorten the assessment of the
long-term aggregation stability and thus accelerate the optimization
of antibody formulations. For a set of antibodies used in the therapeutic
areas from oncology to rheumatology and osteoporosis, we obtain an
accurate prediction of aggregate fractions for up to three years using
the data obtained on a much shorter time scale. Significantly, the
strategy combining kinetic and thermodynamic analysis not only contributes
to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of antibody
aggregation but has already proven to be very effective in the development
and production of biological therapeutics.

Abstract
A rationally designed supramolecular FRET pair consisting of cyanine3-cucurbit[7]uril (Cy3-CB[7]) and boron-dipyrromethene 630/650-adamantylammonium (BDP-AdA) can be used to visualize organelle-specific autophagy events. The intracellular accumulations of Cy3-CB[7] in lysosomes and BDP-AdA in lipid droplets (LDs) and the formation of an intracellular host-guest complex between Cy3-CB[7] and BDP-AdA resulting in FRET signals allow us to visualize the fusion of LDs with lysosomes, namely, lipophagy. This study demonstrates the potential of supramolecular imaging based on bio-orthogonal host-guest interactions in the investigation of selective autophagy events.

Supramolecular chemistry for targeting proteins is of great interest for the development of novel approaches to recognize, isolate and control proteins. Taking advantage of chemical biology approaches, such as genetic-code expansion and enzyme-mediated ligation, guest recognition elements can be built into proteins of interest, allowing supramolecular control of protein function and regulation. In this viewpoint article, we will discuss the methods, applications, limitations, and future perspectives of supramolecular chemistry for targeting proteins in a site-specific manner.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been rapidly developed for their broad applications in many different chemistry and materials fields. In this work, a multi-dentate building block 5-(4-(tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl)-isophthalic acid (H3L) containing tetrazole and carbolxylate moieties was employed for the synthesis of a two-dimensional (2D) lanthanide MOF [La(HL)(DMF)2(NO3)] (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) (1) under solvothermal condition. The fluorescent sensing application of 1 was investigated. 1 exhibits high sensitivity recognition for antibiotic nitrofurantoin (Ksv: 3.0 × 103 M−1 and detection limit: 17.0 μM) and amino acid l-tyrosine (Ksv: 1.4 × 104 M−1 and detection limit: 3.6 μM). This work provides a feasible detection platform of 2D MOFs for highly sensitive discrimination of antibiotics and amino acids.

Abstract
Regulation of specific protein function is of great importance for both research and therapeutic development. Many small or large molecules have been developed to control specific protein function, but there is a lack of a universal approach to regulate the function of any given protein. We report a general host-guest molecular recognition approach involving modification of the protein functional surfaces with genetically encoded unnatural amino acids bearing guest side chains that can be specifically recognized by cucurbit[7]uril. Using two enzymes and a cytokine as models, we showed that the activity of proteins bearing unnatural amino acid could be turned off by host molecule binding, which blocked its functional binding surface. Protein activity can be switched back by treatment with a competitive guest molecule. Our approach provides a general tool for reversibly regulating protein function through molecular recognition and can be expected to be valuable for studying protein functions.

Abstract
Recently, chemical interface damping (CID) has been proposed as a new plasmon damping pathway based on interfacial hot-electron transfer from metal to adsorbate molecules. It has been considered essential, owing to its potential implications in efficient photochemical processes and sensing experiments. However, thus far, studies focusing on controlling CID in single gold nanoparticles have been very limited, and in situ reversible tuning has remained a considerable challenge. In these scanning electron microscopy-correlated dark-field spectroscopic measurements and density functional theory calculations, cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7])-based host–guest supramolecular interactions were employed to examine and control the CID process using monoamine-functionalized CB[7] (CB[7]-NH2) attached to single gold nanorods (AuNRs). In situ tuning of CID through the CB[7]–oxaliplatin complexation, which can result in the variation of the chemical nature and electronic properties of adsorbates, was presented. In addition, in situ tuning of CID was demonstrated through the competitive release of the oxaliplatin guest from the oxaliplatin@CB[7] complex, which was then replaced by a competitor guest of spermine in sufficient amounts. Furthermore, nuclear magnetic resonance experiments confirmed that the release of the guest is the consequence of adding salt (NaCl). Thus, in situ reversible tuning of CID in single AuNRs was achieved through successive steps of encapsulation and release of the guest on the same AuNR in a flow cell. Finally, single CB[7]-NH2@AuNRs were presented as a recyclable platform for CID investigations after the complete release of guest molecules from their host–guest inclusion complexes. Therefore, this study has paved a new route to achieve in situ reversible tuning of CID in the same AuNR and to investigate the CID process using CB-based host–guest chemistry with various guest molecules in single AuNRs for efficient hot-electron photochemistry and biosensing applications. This study has paved a new route to achieve in situ reversible tuning of chemical interface damping (CID) in the same gold nanorod (AuNR) and to investigate the CID process using cucurbituril (CB)-based host–guest chemistry with various guest molecules in single AuNRs.![]()

Abstract
High-affinity guests have been reported for the macrocyclic host cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]), enabling widespread applications, but hindering CB[7] materials from being returned to their guest-free state for reuse. Here, we present polyhedral boron clusters (carboranes) as strongly binding, yet easily removable, guests for CB[7]. Aided by a Pd-catalyzed coupling of an azide anion, we prepared boron-functionalized 9-amino-ortho-carborane that binds to CB[7] with a Ka ≈ 1010 M-1. Upon basic treatment, ortho-carborane readily undergoes deboronation to yield anionic nido-carborane, a poor guest for CB[7], facilitating recovery of guest-free CB[7]. We showcase the utility of the modified ortho-carborane guest by recycling a CB[7]-functionalized resin. With this report, we introduce stimuli-responsive decomplexation as an additional consideration in the design of high-affinity host-guest complexes.

Abstract
Non-covalent chemosensing ensembles of cucurbit[n]urils (CBn) have been widely used in proof-of-concept sensing applications, but they are prone to disintegrate in saline media, e.g. biological fluids. We show here that covalent cucurbit[7]uril-indicator dye conjugates are buffer- (10× PBS buffer) and saline-stable (up to 1.4 M NaCl) and allow for selective sensing of Parkinson's drug amantadine in human urine and saliva, where the analogous non-covalent CB7⊃dye complex is dysfunctional. The in-depth analysis of the covalent host-dye conjugates in the gas-phase, and deionized versus saline aqueous media revealed interesting structural, thermodynamic and kinetic effects that are of general interest for the design of CBn-based supramolecular chemosensors and systems. This work also introduces a novel high-affinity indicator dye for CB7 through which fundamental limitations of indicator displacement assays (IDA) were exposed, namely an impractical slow equilibration time. Unlike non-covalent CBn⊃dye reporter pairs, the conjugate chemosensors can also operate through a SN2-type guest-dye exchange mechanism, which shortens assay times and opens new avenues for tailoring analyte-selectivity.
