Protein origami sets scene for designer structures | Chemistry World
Protein origami sets scene for designer structures | Chemistry World - A world first in the art of protein origami has been attained with a novel method of folding a polypeptide chain into a three-dimensional tetrahedron. This result could open doors to the formation of more complex polypeptide structures and entirely new, unnatural proteins with new opportunities for drug delivery and catalysis.(10.1038/nchembio.1248)
