Abstract

Proteins are traditionally thought to denature at interfaces (liquid-liquid or solid-liquid). However, all studies have been done mostly using either monomeric ones or small globular proteins. In article number 1901674, Haibin Su, Sierin Lim, and co-workers find that supramolecular protein assemblies, such as self-assembling protein cages of nanometer size, remain intact at oil-water interface. Balancing of forces that keep the assemblies together and those that are experienced at the interface is key.
