Developing self-complementary macrocycles with ingenious molecules

Some biological molecules with efficient noncovalent bonding sites can use their bonding properties to create well-defined assemblies from a single class of molecules–i.e., they assemble with each ...

Self-complementary recombinant adeno-associated virus (scAAV) vectors promote efficient transduction independently of DNA synthesis

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors package single-stranded genomes and require host-cell synthesis of the complementary strand for transduction. However, when the genome is half wild-type size, AAV ...

Genus of Paley graphs

Let q be a power of a prime, q = p k, where p 1 (mod 4). The Paley graph P q is the Cayley graph of the additive group GF(q) generated with all squares. More precisely, V(P q) = GF(q), and vertices x, ...
