Specific Internalisation of Gold Nanoparticles into Engineered Porous Protein Cages via Affinity Binding.

Porous protein cages are supramolecular protein self-assemblies presenting pores that allow the access of surrounding molecules and ions into their core in order to store and transport them in biological environments. Protein cages' pores are attractive channels for the internalisation of inorg...
