Ferritin is considered the major iron storage protein which maintains a large iron core in its
cavity and has ferroxidase activity. There are many types of ferritin particularly in prokaryotes …

Advances in imaging technologies have revealed that many bacteria possess organelles
with a proteomically defined lumen and a macromolecular boundary. Some are bound by a …

The clinical applications of magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) have been largely
hindered by the poor magnetic-to-thermal conversion efficiency of MHT agents. Herein, we …

Supramolecular protein assemblies are an emerging area within the chemical sciences,
which combine the topological structures of the field of supramolecular chemistry and the …

Viruses are the most abundant biological entities on earth and show remarkable diversity of
genome sequences, replication and expression strategies, and virion structures …

Molecular genetic research on bacteriophage lambda carried out during its golden age from
the mid-1950s to mid-1980s was critically important in the attainment of our current …

Protein nanoparticles, PNPs, have played a long‐standing role in food and industrial
applications. More recently, their potential in nanomedicine has been more widely pursued …

Subcellular compartments often serve to store nutrients or sequester labile or toxic
compounds. As bacteria mostly do not possess membrane-bound organelles, they often …

Biological systems use compartmentalisation as a general strategy to control enzymatic
reactions by precisely regulating enzyme–substrate interactions. With the advent of DNA …

Iron is an essential micronutrient, and, in the case of bacteria, its availability is commonly a
growth-limiting factor. However, correct functioning of cells requires that the labile pool of …
