论文摘要
“活着”聚合物的系统在工业中无处不在，传统上是使用表面活性剂实现的。在这里，我回顾了生物聚合物的最先进，并讨论了可以通过蛋白质官能化的高级合成化学或DNA实现的非平衡扩展。这些系统不仅很有趣，以实现新颖的“活泼”软物质，而且还可以深入了解基因组在体内受到的调节。
Systems of "living" polymers are ubiquitous in industry and are traditionally realised using surfactants. Here I review the state-of-the-art of living polymers and discuss non-equilibrium extensions that may be realised with advanced synthetic chemistry or DNA functionalised by proteins. These systems are not only interesting in order to realise novel "living" soft matter but can also shed insight into how genomes are (topologically) regulated in vivo.
