Process of accumulation of metal ions on the interior surface of apo-ferritin: crystal structures of a series of apo-ferritins containing variable quantities of Pd(II) ions.

Abstract excerpt

Accumulation of metal ions on protein surfaces is an important subject in the field of materials science because these processes are applicable to the preparation of bioinspired inorganic materials. While previous studies related to this subject have focused on the preparation of nanomaterials using protein scaffolds, the detailed processes of metal ion deposition and metal core formation on a protein surface...
