Abstract

A novel strategy to construct photocontrolled protein nanowires with reversible morphology was reported through photoisomerizable azobenzene-cored dendrimer evoked protein self-assembly. Furthermore, the curvature of the protein nanowires could be switched by alternatively irradiating with visible light and ultraviolet light.
