title: Sequential binding of large molecules to hairy MOFs.
abstract: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are entities with a repertoire of dynamic functions. With a simple touch of salts, smooth crystals of MOFs can be turned into hairy ones, dramatically enhancing chemisorption of large molecules, i.e., by 120 times. When this process is followed by another round of etching, sequential binding of different proteins is possible.
