Zusammenfassung:Jutz et al provide an introduction to bionanotechnology, focusing in depth on the protein ferritin. They highlight the ferritin protein shell as a multivalent scaffold, the synthesis of nanophase (in)organic materials in the ferritin protein cage, the fabrication of two-dimensional arrays of ferritin, the electrochemical properties of ferritin, and the role of ferritin in various applications.
