Protein disorder–order interplay to guide the growth of hierarchical mineralized structures

Protein disorder–order interplay to guide the growth of hierarchical mineralized structures

There is evidence that disordered proteins play a role in the mineralization process. Here, the authors report on the development of elastin-like recombinant protein membranes using disordered-ordered interplay to investigate and guide mineralization.
