Reacción a "Reactions to Nobel Prize in Chemistry for Bertozzi, Meldal and Sharpless for click chemistry and its use in living organisms"

The possibility of programming molecules to react quickly and selectively ("click") with each other in the presence of many others has opened up immense possibilities for preparing and modifying functional materials or drugs, or for developing diagnostic methods, among other things. This click chemistry, discovered by Meldal and Sharpless, has been extended to living cells, and even to living organisms, thanks to Bertozzi's work, and has become one of the most useful tools for understanding and manipulating biology.
