Inspired by this, recent chemical and biological stud- ies mainly focus on supramolecular self-assembly of proteins into high ordered architectures, especially the assembly suategy to unravel tile formation and function of protein nanostructures. In this review, we st, mmarize the progress made in the engi- neering of supramolecular protein architectures according to the strategies used to control the orient:ilion and the order of the assembly process. Furthermore, potential applications in biomedical areas of the supramolecular protein nanostructures will also be reviewed.展开更多
