Computational design of protein self-assembly
(2016) In Current Opinion in Structural Biology 39. p.39-45- Abstract
Protein self-assembly is extensively used in nature to build functional biomolecules and provides a general approach to design molecular complexes with many intriguing applications. Although computational design of protein-protein interfaces remains difficult, much progress has recently been made in de novo design of protein assemblies with cyclic, helical, cubic, internal and lattice symmetries. Here, we discuss some of the underlying biophysical principles of self-assembly that influence the design problem and highlight methodological advances that have made self-assembly design a fruitful area of protein design.
