Good to have this paper out from the lab and grad student lead author Jaepil Jeong, jointly with collaborator Kris Matyjaszewski. A way to use #NucleicAcid scaffolds for photocatalyzing polymerizations.
Nucleic Acid-Binding Dyes as Versatile Photocatalysts for Atom-Transfer Radical Polymerization
Trying to decompress after the tumult of the past couple of days & perhaps shouldn't have checked work email - but woo hoo nice to see email for a paper accepted!
In (Cell) Chem! A report on our reagent to include 1 or more #ATRP initiators & growing #polymers on #DNA or now #RNA sequences!
Kudos to my (joint) student JJ with long time collaborator Kris Matyjaszewski in this (newish) area of nucleic acids polymer hybrids.
Will update with link when it's out after galleys

Long day at work for other things - but woo hoo nice to get an email for a paper accepted!
In JACS - a report on a reagent to attach #ATRP initiators and growing #polymers on #RNA sequences.
Great job by my (joint) student JJ with long time collaborator Kris Matyjaszewski in this (newish) area of nucleic acids polymer hybrids.
