Abstract

Abstract: Invited for the cover of this issue are Christoph Hirschhäuser and his colleagues from the University of Duisburg‐Essen. The image depicts a biotin‐labelled transfection vector selectively channelling DNA into a cancer cell. The QR code on the label will lead you to a video abstract (https://youtu.be/OgXfBPZTKGA). Read the full text of the article at 10.1002/chem.202104618 . Abstract : " The new vector system, or derivatives thereof could, for example, be used to transfect plasmids coding for apoptosis‐inducing proteins into cancer cells ." This and more about the story behind the front cover can be found in the article at 10.1002/chem.202104618 ).
