The Size Flexibility of Ferritin Nanocage Opens a New Way to Prepare Nanomaterials
Abstract
Ferritins are ubiquitous iron storage proteins where Fe(II) sequestration prevents not only its spontaneous oxidation to Fe(III) but also production of toxic free radicals. Recently, scientists have subverted these nature functions and used ferritin cage structures of nanometer dimensions for encapsulation of guest molecules such as anti-cancer drugs or bioactive nutrients based on pH induced ferritin disassembly and reassembly property....
