1 Self-Assembly of Protein Cage Directed Nanoparticle Superlattices Mauri Kostiainen Aalto University Department of Applied Physics

2 Protein Nanoparticles Protein cages (e.g viruses) as building blocks for nanomaterials Consist of a discrete number of protein subunits Well-defined size and shape Reversible assembly Hollow interior Encapsulation of nanoparticles inside protein cages induce assembly The protein cage can in principle controll the assembly of any material that is encapsulated inside it rdered 3D arrays of protein cages with material inside

3 Protein Cage Details RNA Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) Capsid diameter 28 nm Cavity diameter 18 nm Native virus particle (RNA genome inside) pi 3.7 FT cage with: 1. Hollow cavity (apoft) 2. -Fe 2 3 (MF) Ferritin from Pyrococcus furiosus Cage diameter 12 nm Cavity diameter 8 nm Magnetoferritin (6 nm Fe 3 4 -Fe 2 3 particles inside) Superparamagnetic pi 4.5

4 CCMV Purification Californian black-eye beans - Two weeks of gardening - Four kilos of plant material - Two days of purification Plants growing Homogenized plant 1 g of pure CCMV Final CsCl density gradient ultracentrifugation Native CCMV virus particles SEC-trace of purified CCMV

5 Negatively Charged Cages induce assembly Electrostatic approach to assemble ordered protein cage arrays? Assembly of protein cages Both cages are negatively charged at neutral ph. The negatively charged patches on CCMV are located around the three-fold rotation axes Interaction with Cationic nanoparticles CCMV Electrostatic potential projected on the solvent accessible surface: red -9 kt/e and blue 0 kt/e
