Abstract
|
 |
|
We describe the metal-dependent self-assembly of symmetrical protein
homooligomers from protein building blocks that feature appropriately engineered
metal-chelating motifs on their surfaces. Crystallographic studies indicate that
the same four-helix-bundle protein construct, MBPC-1, can self-assemble into
C(2) and C(3) symmetrical assemblies dictated by Cu(II) and Ni(II) coordination,
respectively. The symmetry inherent in metal coordination can thus be directly
applied to biological self-assembly.
