Should rational socioeconomic agents attempt to exert ‘control’ over the evolution of their preference or behavioral parameters?

Social Sciences and Humanities Open, 2023
Let a ‘heuristic’ be any preference or behavior that is anticipated to facilitate the achievement of some long-term objective, to wit, an objective which comprises of, at the very least, two sequential sub-objectives. The choice of any specific heuristic

Cryo‐EM reveals ArnA contamination during purification of a ciliary protein complex

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 404-410, May 2026.
ArnA contamination was independently observed during the purification of a soluble, low‐yield protein complex, leading to an unintended 3.23 Å resolution cryo‐EM structure. This work broadens recent findings and highlights ArnA as a recurrent His‐tag‐associated contaminant in Escherichia coli purification workflows.Endogenous Escherichia coli proteins ...

Simple incentives and diverse beliefs

Theoretical Economics, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 500-534, May 2026.
This paper studies a moral hazard problem in which the principal does not know the agent's beliefs about the output generating process. The agent is risk neutral, transfers are subject to limited liability, and the principal evaluates contracts according to their worst‐case payoff against a rich set of plausible agent beliefs.

Conformational Trajectory of the Molecular Chameleon Grazoprevir From Formulation to Target‐Bound

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 8, 23 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Macrocycles represent a promising class of beyond‐rule‐of‐5 (bRo5) therapeutics, capable of targeting proteins traditionally considered undruggable by conventional small molecules. Macrocycles exhibit intrinsic flexibility and often display a “chameleon‐like” ability to adapt to their environment, thereby enhancing their oral bioavailability ...

Mapping Hydration and Nanoarchitecture in mRNA‐Loaded Lipid Nanoparticles Through Small‐Angle Neutron Scattering

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Using small‐angle neutron scattering (SANS) with deuterated lipid substitution and contrast variation, this work examines the core–shell structure of KC2 lipid nanoparticles, their water content and exchange properties, structural changes during heating and acidification, and compositional distribution and phase complexity via invariant analysis. These

SURFS and AlphaFold Reveal Ribosome Footprint Shift Caused by EF-Tu D81 Mutation

Summary Protein synthesis relies on accurate mRNA decoding by tRNA, a process guided by EF-Tu. We investigated how mutations at a conserved residue, aspartate 81, affect EF-Tu function using GTPase assays, AlphaFold modeling, and quantum-sensing-based super-resolution force spectroscopy (SURFS). All D81 variants retained GTPase activity
