Second career of a biosynthetic enzyme: Lumazine synthase as a virus-like nanoparticle in vaccine development

Naturally occurring and computationally ab initio designed protein cages can now be considered as extremely suitable materials for new developments in nanotechnology. Via self-assembly from single identical or non-identical protomers large oligomeric particles can be formed. Virus-like particles hav...
