A novel synthetic route to peptide-capped gold nanoparticles was demonstrated herein. Tetrachloroaurate ions were reduced with 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) under extremely mild conditions (pH 7.2, ambient temperature) in the presence of cysteine-terminal desired peptides, so that peptide-capped spherical nanoparticles were
Humankind has utilized protein materials throughout its existence, starting with the use of materials such as wool and silk for warmth and protection from the elements and continuing with the use of recombinant DNA techniques to synthesize proteins with unique and useful properties.
