Time-Resolved Studies of Ytterbium Distribution at Interfacial Surfaces of Ferritin-like Dps Protein Demonstrate Metal Uptake and Storage Pathways

Cage-shaped protein (CSP) complexes are frequently used in bionanotechnology, and they have a variety of different architectures and sizes. The smallest cage-shaped protein, Dps (DNA binding protein from starved cells), can naturally form iron oxide biominerals in a multistep process of ion attracti...
