Stable hollow-type microspheres (MSs) have been fabricated using α-synuclein (αS), an amyloidogenic protein, via freeze-induced protein self-assembly. This assembly process involves three steps: rapid freezing to form spherical protein condensates from αS oligomers, frozen annealing to form a crust on the condensate and freeze-drying to create an interior lumen via the three-dimensional (3D) coffee-stain effect. The crust produced during the frozen-annealing step is a β-sheet-mediated protein structure that is presumed to be created at the quasi-liquid layer of the protein-ice interface and thus contributes to the stability of MSs in aqueous solutions at room temperature without any additional surface stabilization.

Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), serves as a reliable and vital biomarker for precise diagnosis and effective monitoring of hepatocellular carcinoma, requires precise detection. Herein, a sandwich-structured electrochemical immunosensor was crafted, employing three-dimensional layered porous carbon modified with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as the substrate and Au NPs/CuS as the labeling compound for accurate and sensitive detection of AFP. Due to the effective coordination between the 3D carbon network, Au NPs, and hollow CuS nanocubes, the sandwich-structured electrochemical immunosensor was able to produce three distinct response signals via various detection techniques, demonstrating a broad linear range (0.

Gold nanoclusters decorated hollow ZIF-8 encapsulating iron-catecholates (Fe-HHTP@HZIF-8@ AuNCs) was formed through self-assembly of Fe and 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (HHTP), in situ embedding of ZIF-8, and Au-Zn exchange reaction. Its morphology and structure were fully characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy element mapping, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Additionally, its oxidase-like activity was explored with K of 0.

Bacterial cell factories have been successfully engineered to efficiently assemble spherical polyhydroxybutyrate inclusions coated with functional proteins of interest. In these submicrometer-sized core-shell assemblies, proteins are bioconjugated to the polymer core, enabling bioengineering for uses as bioseparation resins, enzyme carriers, diagnostic reagents, and particulate vaccines. Here, we explore whether these functional protein-polymer assemblies could be restructured via dissolution and subsequent precipitation while retaining the functionality of the conjugated protein.
