We proudly share our latest JACS paper showing that optimized xanthenium photocages can bring light-activated drug release closer to real-world biology. Red-shifted activation, robust uncaging, and compelling validation beyond standard 2D assays. #JACS pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Optimized Xanthenium Photocages with Fused Ring Systems for Photoactivated Chemotherapy and G...

Photocages are light-responsive chemical protecting groups that enable the controlled release of bioactive molecules. As the need for precise spatiotemporal manipulation in increasingly complex...

A classical Friedel-Crafts reaction may not be biocompatible partly because acid catalysts are needed. Our work @JACS_Au showed a boron unit makes it "catalyst-free" for tryptophan bioconjugation! The century-old reaction still has a lot going on! doi.org/10.1021/jacsau.5c011…
