Abstract:Protein two-dimensional (2D) crystallization denotes the supreme degree of its ordering, thus 2D protein crystals can be applied in diverse fields ranging from structural biology to materials science with unique performances. To date, 2D crystallization of proteins, especially engineered proteins, is emerging as a powerful tool for bottom-up approaches to the nanofabrication of functional structures. However, till now there is still lack of general method of forming 2D crystals of proteins due to limited unde… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
