The proximity of ${\rm Z}^+(4430)$ to the ${\rm D^{*}\bar{D}_1}$ threshold suggests that it may be a ${\rm D^{*}\bar{D}_1}$ molecular state. The ${\rm D^{*}\bar{D}_1}$ system has been studied dynamically from quark model, and state mixing effect is taken into account by solving the multichannel Schr$\ddot{\rm o}$dinger equation numerically. We suggest the most favorable quantum number is ${\rm J^{P}=0^{-}}$, if future experiments confirm ${\rm Z}^+(4430)$ as a loosely bound molecule state. More precise measurements of ${\rm Z}^+(4430)$ mass and width, partial wave analysis are helpful to understand its structure. The analogous heavy flavor mesons ${\rm Z}^{+}_{bb}$ and ${\rm Z}^{++}_{bc}$ are studied as well, and the masses predicted in our model are in agreement with the predictions from potential model and QCD sum rule. We further apply our model to the ${\rm D\bar{D}^{*}}$ and ${\rm DD^{*}}$ system. We find the exotic ${\rm DD^{*}}$ bound molecule doesn't exist, while the $1^{++}$ ${\rm D\bar{D}^{*}}$ bound state solution can be found only if the screening mass $\mu$ is smaller than 0.17 GeV. The state mixing effect between the molecular state and the conventional charmonium should be considered to understand the nature of X(3872).

    First 4D amplitude analysis of B+ → ψ(2S) K_S0 π+ confirms the exotic T_{c c-bar 1}(4430)+ structure with properties consistent with prior observations in the isospin-related channel.
