The AuNPs are arranged following the pitch of the helical APO protein fiber. The mean size of the AuNPs was similar in the three different APO protein fibrils studied in this work. The AuNPs retained their optical properties in these hybrid systems. Conductivity measurements showed ohmic behavior like that of a continuous metallic structure.}, organization = {MINECO Project PID2019-111461GB-100}, organization = {Unidad de Excelencia de Química aplicada a Biomedicina y Medioambiente” at the University of Granada.}, organization = {Junta de Andalucía Project P18- FQM-1373}, publisher = {Royal Society of Chemistry}, title = {Gold nanoparticle-coated apoferritin conductive nanowires}, doi = {10.1039/d3ra03186a}, author = {Pelayo Punzano, Gloria and Jurado Palomares, Rocío and Domínguez Vera, José Manuel and Gálvez Rodríguez, Natividad}, }
