This hybrid clone expressing both gold-binding peptide motif. This produced a expressing consistingand a modest amount of Au produced a nanowire consisting of3O4.

Inside a later study while the pIII protein was bound to FePO4 whilst the pIII protein pVIII protein was bound to FePO4 [86], the pVIII protein was modified with a peptide sequence was modified having a peptide sequence facilitating the interaction with single-walled carbon nanotubes facilitating the interaction with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). This brought together (SWCNTs).
