Abstract
Living organisms create life-sustaining macromolecular biocompounds including biopolymers. Artificial polymers can selectively recognize biocompounds and are more resistant to harsh physical, chemical, and physiological conditions than biopolymers are. Due to recognition at a molecular level, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) provide powerful tools to correlate structure with biological functionality and are often used to build next-generation chemosensors. We envision an increasing emergence of nucleic acid analogs (NAAs) or biorelevant monomers built into nature-mimicking polymers. For example, if nucleobases bearing monomers arranged by a complementary template are polymerized to form NAAs, the resulting MIPs will open up novel perspectives for synthesizing NAAs. Despite their usefulness, it is still challenging to use MIPs to devise adaptive biomaterials and to implement them in point-of-care testing.
