Albumin, a highly biocompatible protein, has been utilized in the construction of anti-cancer drugs for the treatment of various cancers. However, albumin-based nanomedicines still face several clinical challenges, including low stability in the bloodstream, non-specific targeting ability, and lack of controlled release capability. To address these limitations, we developed a multiprotein-based nanomedicine for targeted chemot...

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a potent neurotoxin and bioaccumulates in food webs. Microbial transformation of inorganic mercury (Hg) produces most of the MeHg in the marine environment. The gene pair hgcAB encodes for Hg methylation, a process predominantly attributed to anaerobic bacteria. However, recent studies indicate the formation of methylmercury in low-oxygen zones within marine water columns, although the mechanisms remain...
