DNA Nanocaged Enzymes
Compartmentalization increases the overall activity and specificity of encapsulated enzymes by protecting the enzymes, maintaining a high concentration of enzymes and substrates, and promoting substrate channeling. While there have been artificial enzymatic particles that have been created using compartmentalization by virus-like proteins, liposomes,...

Novel Ligands for Transition-Metal Catalysis
Invention Summary: N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are tremendously valuable ligands in homogeneous catalysis. IPr (IPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) represents the most important NHC. Rutgers scientists have developed novel, sterically bulky, easily accessible NHC ligand IPr# (referred to as “hash” series) that can...
