Here, the transduction of light to ATP is done in a silica sol-gel, which might ultimately form an energy-generating compartment for nanodevices that use the biological currency of ATP.

Can this idea be elaborated and generalized so that various cargoes are picked up and delivered to sites where they are needed?

Nucleating peptides are incorporated into the M13 coat protein and thereby provide a template for the directed synthesis of semiconducting and magnetic materials. The scheme provides a tuneable genetic toolkit for growing and organizing nanowires.

Morse Fractal intermediates in the self-assembly of silicatein filaments Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 102 2005 11657 11662 Silicateins are proteins with a dual role: they both catalyze the formation of silica and control its deposition, which ultimately results in the formation of the silica needles of marine sponges. Here the assembly of silicateins into filaments is investigated in vitro and is shown to proceed through fractally patterned intermediates.
