COVER STORY Polymers that Function within a Cell |
| Cellular phenomena are maintained by interactions of
various macromolecules, such as proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleotides,
together with other small molecules and ions in the tiny space of a cell.
Biofunctional polymers, which control cellular phenomena through interaction
with intracellular molecules or generate functions at a specific site
of a cell or in a particular environment of a cell, could not only
contribute to the elucidation of cellular phenomena, but also lead to
the development of new functional materials for biotechnology, medicine
and their related fields. This special issue features current topics
of researches about polymers
that function within a cell and their possibilities in the future. （Editors: KONO, AKIYOSHI and KAWAKAMI） |
