Abstract excerpt
The favorable physicochemical properties are essential for the application of protein-based nanovehicles in the field of biomaterials. Herein, we found that the thermal stability of Marsupenaeus japonicus ferritin (MjFer) (Tm = 109.1 ± 0.4 °C) is markedly higher than human H-chain ferritin (HuHF) (Tm = 87.7 ± 0.3 °C), although they share a high structural similarity. Multiple results indicated that the promoted...
