Cage-like proteins such as E2 from Bacillus stearothermophilus, ferritins and heat shock proteins have surfaces which can be modified to generate nanomaterials with multiple functionalities. Limited studies have been carried out on E2 and its characteristics in terms of metal loading. In this work,...
