Abstract:The immobilization of proteins on the surface of carriers is challenging due to the loss of protein structure and function in this process. Here, we report the development of the protein immobilization on the surface of the metallated‐porphyrin complex in the porphysome nanocarrier. The conjugated Ni‐porphyrin to fatty acid (as a tail) has been synthesized and independently placed at the depth of the bilayer center of Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) in which the Ni‐porphyrin was at the polar region of th… Show more
