Abstract

Constructing different protein nanostructures by using identical building blocks, while realizing their structural transformation in response to external stimuli, remains a challenge. Here, we fabricated protein nanocages and nanorods by using dimeric TmFtn as a building block and reacting with Mg2+/(α, L -lysine) with polymerization degrees of 9 (PLL9) and 15 (PLL15), respectively. Notably, the reversible shape transformation of these two supramolecular protein architectures with different dimensions can be achievable in response to external stimuli. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
