title: Coiled-coil peptide motifs as thermoresponsive valves for mesoporous silica nanoparticles.
abstract: Coiled-coil peptide motifs were used as thermo-responsive valves for mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The controlled release of a model drug as a function of temperature was demonstrated.
