This paper demonstrates a modular platform for enzyme encapsulation using bacterial microcompartment shells, showing successful activity and stability for multiple enzymes.

The paper uses SAXS and PDDF to analyze BMC shell structures and enzyme encapsulation in Haliangium ochraceum BMCs expressed in E. coli, showing cytoplasmic protein capture during assembly.

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