Alumina nanoparticle-assisted enzyme refolding: A versatile methodology for proteins renaturation

Abstract We present a high-yield method for the renaturation of negatively charged enzymes. The approach is based on the use of alumina nanoparticles, which after electrostatic interaction with denatured protein molecules, prevent their aggregation and make the process of refolding controllable. The...
