Directing intracellular supramolecular assembly with N-heteroaromatic quaterthiophene analogues

Self-assembly of synthetic molecules in living cells can influence cell function, but is extremely challenging due to the complex environment of cells. Here the authors report the self-assembly of small organic molecules that locate, target and self-report their supramolecular behavior in living cel...
