Journal ArticleDOI
Host–guest encapsulation of materials by assembled virus protein cages
Trevor Douglas,Mark J. Young +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a virion — that of the cowpea chlorotic mottle virus — can be used as a host for the synthesis of materials and the mineralization of two polyoxometalate species and the encapsulation of an anionic polymer inside this virion, controlled by pH-dependent gating of the virion's pores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inorganic–Organic Nanotube Composites from Template Mineralization of Tobacco Mosaic Virus
TL;DR: This paper reports a new approach to the template-directed synthesis of inorganic±organic nanotubes using tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), and shows that TMV is a suitable template for reactions such as co-crystallization, oxidative hydrolysis, and sol-gel condensation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viruses: Making Friends with Old Foes
Trevor Douglas,Mark J. Young +1 more
TL;DR: Viruses form highly symmetrical monodisperse architectures and are ideal templates for engineering multifunctionality, including multivalent display of surface ligands and encapsulation of inorganic and organic materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological Containers: Protein Cages as Multifunctional Nanoplatforms
Masaki Uchida,Michael T. Klem,Mark Allen,Peter A. Suci,Michelle L. Flenniken,Eric Gillitzer,Zachary Varpness,Lars O. Liepold,Mark J. Young,Trevor Douglas +9 more
TL;DR: Hierarchical assembly of the functionalized cages paves the way for development of a new class of materials with a wide range of applications from electronics to biomedicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Healthy human gut phageome
Pilar Manrique,Benjamin Bolduc,Seth T. Walk,John van der Oost,Willem M. de Vos,Mark J. Young +5 more
TL;DR: A healthy gut phageome (HGP) was discovered, and it is found that the HGP is significantly decreased in individuals with gastrointestinal disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease), revealing a large community of human gut bacteriophages that likely contribute to maintaining human health.
