Nanoscale protein containers could aid drug, vaccine delivery

Thursday, May 31, 2012 - 16:41 in Physics & Chemistry

UCLA biochemists have designed specialized proteins that assemble themselves to form tiny molecular cages hundreds of times smaller than a single cell. The creation of these miniature structures may be the first step toward developing new methods of drug delivery or even designing artificial vaccines.
