Figure 1: Capsid model of the bacteriophage M13 - . Top -view (a) and side view (b) . The modified protein 8 containing the acidic N-terminus is shown in (c) . Schematics of the bacteriophage M13 (d) and a simplified flow chart of the green synthesis of amorphous iron phosphate nanowires (e). When it comes to nanotechnology, nature is truly the most successful researcher. Whereas we are still struggling with large-scale production of three-dimensional, nano-sized materials, nature perfected this task in viruses long before the dawn of humanity. Bionanotechnologists use these viral structures as templates for the synthesis of nanostructured inorganic materials with new outstanding properties.
