Urea-Driven Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) Permeation into the Ferritin Cage, an Innovative Method for Fabrication of Protein–Polyphenol Co-assemblies

The 8 nm diameter cavity endows the ferritin cage with a natural space to encapsulate food components. In this work, urea was explored as a novel medium to facilitate the formation of ferritin–polyphenol co-assemblies. Results indicated that urea (20 mM) could expand the 4-fold channel size of apo-r...
