A reliable method for the efficient chemical synthesis and poly(ethylene glycol) PEG-like modification of fluorogenic RNA aptamers is reported. The 43-mer version Mango-II (MangoII-v1), which binds tightly specifically to green fluorophore TO1-Biotin (TO1-B), was synthesized by automated phosphoramidite chemistry using 2'-O-[(triisopropylsilyl)oxy]methyl] (2'-O-TOM)-protected ribonucleosides. Solid-phase also used as a single tool prepare MangoII-v1 modified with oligophosphate synthetic segment (MangoII-v1-P). After cleavage from resin, deprotection, purification, capacity activate fluorescence TO1-B degradation behavior chemically RNAs MangoII-v1-P, were deeply investigated in comparison those enzymatically 48 nucleotides long MangoII. Interestingly, aptamer demonstrated great activity toward its target, compared analogue. Moreover, it found be highly stable, retaining structural integrity bioactivity, even after seven days incubation 20% fetal bovine serum. MangoII-v1-P showed high affinity excellent resistance.

Digital polymers (DPs), which serve as promising molecular-level storage media, have increasingly garnered interest. Their application significantly depends on the efficiency of information writing (synthesis) and reading processes (sequencing). For reading, rational incorporation weak bonds in main chain was applied most cases order to improve readability tandem mass spectra (MS/MS), would limit length DPs, thus reducing capacity. In this study, introduction commercially available crown ether (CE) at terminus digital oligo(γ-butyrolactone)s (DOBLs) enhances predictability fidelity matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF MS/MS), improving decoding process. The use ether, leveraging a well-established supramolecular interaction with alkali cations known since 1967, offers strong affinity between ionization agents CE motifs, form selective effect desired fragments during MS. This method is particularly effective for long-chain extending up 32-mer, allows customizable fragmentation patterns. DP end presents novel efficient strategy enhancing MS/MS amplifying capacity polymers.

Abstract Digitally‐encoded poly(phosphodiesters) ( d ‐PPDE) with highly complex primary structures are evaluated for layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly. To be easily decoded by mass spectrometry (MS), these digital polymers contain many different monomers: 2 coding units allowing binary encryption, 1 cleavable spacer controlled MS fragmentation, and 3 tags fragment identification. These heteropolymers therefore composed of 6 motifs. Despite this strong sequence heterogeneity, it is found that they enable a LbL film formation. For instance, regular growth observed when alternating the deposition negatively‐charged ‐PPDE positively‐charged poly(allyl amine hydrochloride) (PAH). Yet, in approach, interdistance between consecutive coded layers remains relatively small, which may an issue data storage applications, especially selective decoding stored information. Using poly(sodium 4‐styrene sulfonate) (PSS) as intermediate non‐coded polyanion, shown can achieved, while still maintaining growth. Last but not least, work small molecular weight (i.e., significantly smaller than those PAH PSS) enables
