Implementation Constraints
The abstract supports that they depend on both selective multicomponent assembly and functional implementation within the host system. Specific guest classes or assay formats are not provided.; requires combining functionalized cage design with multicomponent assembly strategies
The abstract does not show that these systems are mature or broadly optimized. It only supports that first examples exist and have application potential.; the abstract describes first examples, implying the area is still early

Combining several functionalities within the same assembly without creating statistical mixtures requires sophisticated assembly strategies.
Combining several functionalities without creating statistical mixtures, however, requires a toolbox of sophisticated assembly strategies.
Dedicated functionalities such as catalytic centres or photoswitches have been implemented in coordination cages to enable stimuli control and expanded function.
Recently, the field has made big steps forward by implementing dedicated functionality, e.g. catalytic centres or photoswitches to allow stimuli control.
Self-assembled coordination cages have attracted growing attention because their nano-scale cavities enable host functions such as selective recognition and confined reaction environments.
cages, with particularly the latter ones catching growing attention, owing to their nano-scale cavities. Assemblies serving as hosts allow application as selective receptors, confined reaction environments and more.
