Reprogramming an ATP-driven protein machine into a light-gated nanocage

Natural protein assemblies have many sophisticated architectures and functions, creating nanoscale storage containers, motors and pumps1–3. Inspired by these systems, protein monomers have been engineered to self-assemble into supramolecular architectures4 including symmetrical5,6, metal-templated7,...
