This research will reveal the molecular basis for the design of plant protein delivery systems to entrap and release bioactive molecules in a controlled manner. The direct measurement of protein interactions and the in situ spatial mapping of protein structures will allow us to relate structure and function in the complex environment of food processing. We can create novel nutraceutical delivery systems within foods to improve public health and reduce the risk of chronic disease. These applications will be rapidly transferred to pharmaceutical and biomedical industries because consumers are demanding safe, natural and effective biomaterials of plant origin.

这项研究将揭示植物蛋白递送系统设计的分子基础，以可控的方式捕获和释放生物活性分子。蛋白质相互作用的直接测量和蛋白质结构的原位空间映射将使我们能够在食品加工的复杂环境中将结构和功能联系起来。我们可以在食品中创造新的营养保健品输送系统，以改善公共健康并降低慢性疾病的风险。这些应用将迅速转移到制药和生物医学行业，因为消费者要求安全，天然和有效的植物来源的生物材料。
