A sol-gel vault which comprises a complex between a vault particle and a sol-gel. The vault particle comprises one or more one or more passenger molecules. At least one of the one or more passenger molecules is an mINT passenger molecule. At least one of the one or more passenger molecules is a protein. At least one of the one or more passenger molecules is an enzyme. The sol-gel is a silica-based sol-gel.

Sol-gel vaults and methods of making and using thereof

Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for making vault particles in yeast hosts and yeast vaults produced therefrom.

A battery system includes a load bearing structure having battery cells, or structures formed by battery cells, and at least one mechanical switch, and an electrical connection coupled with the battery cells of the load bearing structure. A battery has a rate-sensitive component that is configured to deform into a first state to provide a first reaction force under a mechanical loading of a first magnitude. The rate-sensitive component is configured to deform into a second state to provide a second reaction force under a mechanical loading of a second magnitude.

Rate-sensitive and self-releasing battery cells and battery-cell structures as structural and/or energy-absorbing vehicle components
