Abstract

The assembly of individual protein subunits into large-scale structures is important in many biological contexts. Proteins may assemble into geometrical cages or extended lattices that are characterized by a high degree of symmetry; examples include viral capsids and bacterial S-layers. The precisely defined higher order structure exhibited by these assemblies has inspired efforts to design such structures de novo by applying the principles of symmetry evident in natural protein assemblies. Here we discuss progress towards this goal and also examples of natural protein cages and lattices that have been engineered to repurpose them towards a diverse range of applications in materials science and nano-medicine.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 20 June 2019.
All research outputs
#14,336,352
of 22,958,253 outputs
Outputs from Sub cellular biochemistry
#166
of 363 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#174,086
of 308,016 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Sub cellular biochemistry
#4
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,958,253 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 363 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 308,016 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
