Abstract

On page 6134, S. Monti and co-workers present classical reactive (ReaxFF) molecular dynamics simulations of the adsorption of cysteine on gold supports. The cover image represents a gold vehicle functionalized with cysteine molecules moving in the blood stream towards its target cells. All the steps of the mechanism, namely physisorption, disulfide bond breaking, chemisorption, formation of staples, and reformation of the disulfide bridge in a crowded environment are identified and characterized in detail.
