Peptide‐Ligand Cooperative Interplay Drives Gold Nanoparticle Encapsulation by Protein Cages

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Gold nanoparticle encapsulation within protein cages is governed by salt‐dependent binding energetics and cooperative peptide–ligand interactions. Ligands enhance electrostatic attraction while peptides extend recruitment and prevent kinetic trapping, enabling robust cargo loading. This molecular‐level insight links experiments and simulations, guiding

Generative AI—the Transgression of Technology

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article offers a systems‐theoretical analysis of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) grounded in Niklas Luhmann's sociology of technology. It addresses a central conceptual problem: How GenAI can be understood within a theoretical framework that has traditionally defined technology as a means of stabilising action through causal ...
