Last year saw the 150th anniversary of Japan–UK diplomatic relations. To commemorate this occasion, this special issue featuring top contributions from around the world is dedicated to this event. This issue features over 30 papers, five of which are Focus Reviews on topics ranging from catalysis to enzyme inhibition. As the cover picture provided by the group of Dr. John S. Fossey shows, just as boronic acids and diols are joined together as two halves of a FRET system via the formed boronic ester link, diplomatic relations have served to link together these two countries on two halves of the world, both politically and scientifically.
