Electrostatics Govern Protein Orientation on Citrate-Capped Gold Nanoparticles
2025-11-10
Abstract excerpt
Conjugation of proteins with gold nanoparticles (GNPs) is crucial in developing nanoparticle-based drugs, which are used in making targeted delivery systems for therapeutic and diagnostic use. This conjugation is often mediated by covalent gold–thiol (Au-S) bonds involving cysteine residues. However, the influence of other interactions, like electrostatics, on protein-GNP interactions remains poorly understood. Wh...
