This study presents molecular structures of PSI-PtNP biohybrids to reveal design principles for optimizing solar-fuel production through protein-nanoparticle interfaces and electron transfer efficiency.

The paper identifies a new function of an enzyme in bacterial microcompartments, proposing NAD+ regeneration and a role for the shell in redox separation.

This paper introduces a chaotrope-based method for in vitro assembly of bacterial microcompartment shells, enabling controlled encapsulation of cargo and expanding design possibilities.
