Encapsulins are protein compartments that exist naturally in a variety of bacteria and archaea, and are composed of a single shell protein that self-assembles and can help to sequester and protect antimicrobial peptides when they are expressed in E.coli. Once assembled, they typically form 25–42 nm diameter icosahedral structures. | Encapsulins are protein compartments that exist naturally in a variety of bacteria and archaea, and are composed of a single shell protein that self-assembles and can help to sequester and protect antimicrobial peptides when they are expressed in E.coli.
