CCMV capsid formation induced by a functional negatively charged polymer.
A functional negatively charged polyelectrolyte, polyferrocenylsilane (PFS) was encapsulated in cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) capsid proteins, yielding monodisperse particles of 18 nm in size with altered redox properties compared to the parent materials.
