title: A new strategy for effective construction of protein stacks by using cucurbit[8]uril as a glue molecule.
abstract: Cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) is found to induce the aggregation of pristine proteins in aqueous solution. Based on this finding, a new strategy for effective construction of layer-by-layer homo- and hetero-protein stacks was developed, where their bioactivities are preserved.
