Structural stability of green fluorescent proteins entrapped in polyelectrolyte nanocapsules.

Abstract excerpt

Molecules of a green fluorescent protein mutant, GFPmut2, have been immobilized in nanocapsules, assemblies of charged polyelectrolyte multilayers, with the aim to study the effect of protein-polyelectrolyte interactions on the protein stability against chemical denaturation. GFPmut2 proteins turn out to be stabilized and protected against the denaturating action of small chemical compounds. The nanocapsule...
