Coordination Chemistry in Protein Cages: Principles, Design, and Applications

Written by highly respected pioneers in the field, Coordination Chemistry in Protein Cages addresses the assembly of and reactions inside protein cages, a rapidly developing area of chemistry. Logically organized into four parts (Coordination Chemistry in Native Protein Cages, Coordination Chemistry to Design Artificial Protein Functions, Applications in Biology, and Applications in Nanotechnology), the text addresses a new chemical approach in the synthesis of bioinorganic molecules which has been applied in a wide variety fields, including catalysis, biomedicine, and electronics.
