Recognition-driven assembly of self-limiting supramolecular protein nanoparticles displaying enzymatic activity

We report the recognition-driven assembly of self-limiting protein nanoparticles displaying enzymatic activity. Solution self-assembly of concanavalin A lectin and glycoenzyme glucose oxidase leads to the spontaneous formation of biocolloids with well-defined dimensions, narrow size distribution and...

Sumario:We report the recognition-driven assembly of self-limiting protein nanoparticles displaying enzymatic activity. Solution self-assembly of concanavalin A lectin and glycoenzyme glucose oxidase leads to the spontaneous formation of biocolloids with well-defined dimensions, narrow size distribution and remarkable stability. These biocolloids successfully recognize a glycosylated modified electrode retaining the enzyme activity. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2015.
