Re-programming Hydrogel Properties Using a Fuel-Driven Reaction Cycle
Open accessAbstract
Nature uses catalysis as an indispensable tool to control assembly and reaction cycles in vital non-equilibrium supramolecular processes. For instance, enzymatic methionine oxidation regulates actin (dis-)assembly, and catalytic guanosine triphosphate hydrolysis is found in tubulin (dis-)assembly. Here we present a completely artificial reaction cycle which is driven by a chemical fuel that is catalytically obtained from a "pre-fuel". The reaction cycle controls the dis-assembly and re-assembly of a hydrogel, where the rate of pre-fuel turnover dictates the morphology as well as the mechanical properties. By addition of additional fresh aliquots of fuel and removal of waste, the hydrogels can be re-programmed time after time. Overall, we show how catalytic fuel generation can control reaction/assembly kinetics and materials' properties in life-like non-equilibrium systems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
