Electrostatically promoted dynamic hybridization of glucans with cationic polythiophene
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hybridizing natural macromolecules with synthetic polymers is an efficient general method for constructing sophisticated supramolecular architectures. To comprehensively elucidate the controversial hybridization mechanism of glucans with synthetic polymers, the hybridization behaviors of triple-stranded curdlan (Cur) and schizophyllan (SPG) with cationic polythiophene (PyPT) were investigated in aqueous DMSO solutions by using UV-vis, circular dichroism (CD), fluorescence, fluorescence excitation, and NMR spectroscopy methods, as well as theoretical calculations, dynamic light scattering, and zeta potential measurements. Upon mixing with glucan, a hetero-triplex formed, which was dynamic and greatly accelerated by heating and by adding a base or a salt. The hetero-triplex disassembled into a hetero-duplex in highly basic solutions. Thus, polycationic polymers, such as PyPT, are expected to serve as a versatile tool for unzipping glucan homo-triplexes and promoting subsequent hybridization in aqueous solution, while the detailed mechanism elucidated in the present study contributes to the rational design of hybridization partners.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
