Abstract

Utilizing the building blocks of recombinant proteins and synthetic linkers, we have obtained two distinct octameric megamolecules with diverse branched structures. This approach combines principles from both click chemistry and protein engineering technology, enabling the integration of functional domains within highly ordered protein assemblies for biomedical applications.
