Abstract
Protein self-association is a widespread phenomenon that results in the formation of multimeric protein structures with critical roles in cellular processes. Protein self-association can lead to finite protein complexes or open-ended, and potentially, infinite structures. This review explores the concept of protein agglomeration, a process that results from the infinite self-assembly of folded proteins. We highlight its differences from other better-described processes with similar macroscopic features, such as aggregation and liquid-liquid phase separation. We review the sequence, structural, and biophysical factors influencing protein agglomeration. Lastly, we briefly discuss the implications of agglomeration in evolution, disease, and aging. Overall, this review highlights the need to study protein agglomeration for a better understanding of cellular processes.

Abstract
High-fidelity preclinical in vitro tissue models can reduce the failure rate of drugs entering clinical trials. Collagen and hyaluronic acid (HA) are major components of the extracellular matrix of many native tissues and affect therapeutic macromolecule diffusion and recovery through tissues. Although collagen and HA are commonly used in tissue engineering, the physical and mechanical properties of these materials are variable and depend highly on processing conditions. In this study, HA was chemically modified and crosslinked via hydrazone bonds to form interpenetrating networks of crosslinked HA (HAX) with collagen (Col). These networks enabled a wide range of mechanical properties, including stiffness and swellability, and microstructures, such as pore morphology and size, that can better recapitulate diverse tissues. We utilized these interpenetrating ColHAX hydrogels as in vitro tissue models to examine macromolecular transport and recovery for early-stage drug screening. Hydrogel formulations with varying collagen and HAX concentrations imparted different gel properties based on the ratio of collagen to HAX. These gels were stable and swelled up to 170% of their original mass, and the storage moduli of the ColHAX gels increased over an order of magnitude by increasing collagen and HA concentration. Interestingly, when HAX concentration was constant and collagen concentration increased, both the pore size and spatial colocalization of collagen and HA increased. HA in the system dominated the ζ-potentials of the gels. The hydrogel and macromolecule properties impacted the mass transport and recovery of lysozyme, β-lactoglobulin, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) from the ColHAX gels─large molecules were largely impacted by mesh size, whereas small molecules were influenced primarily by electrostatic forces. Overall, the tunable properties demonstrated by the ColHAX hydrogels can be used to mimic different tissues for early-stage assays to understand drug transport and its relationship to matrix properties.

Abstract
Molecular rotors are fluorescent viscosity probes and their response in simple fluids is known to be a Förster-Hoffman power law, allowing the viscosity of the medium to be quantified by its fluorescence intensity. They are attractive probes in biological media, usually consisting of proteins, but how does a molecular rotor behave in a protein solution? The response of the DASPI molecular rotor is compared in two globular protein solutions of similar size, haemoglobin (Hb) and bovine serum albumin, one absorbent, the other not. In absorbent Hb, a model validated by experiments in triangular geometry allows one to correct the absorbing effect and to compare the rotor response in both proteins. With concomitant microrheology measurements, we investigate the relation between the DASPI fluorescence intensity and solution viscosity. In protein solutions, we show that viscosity is no longer the parameter determining the rotor response in contrast to simple fluids. Varying the viscosity by concentration or temperature is not equivalent, and the Förster-Hoffmann power laws do not apply when the solution concentration varies. We show that the concentration regime of the protein solution, semi-dilute or concentrated, determines the sensitivity of the rotor to its environment.

Abstract
It is well known that colloidal nanomaterials, upon exposure to a complex biological medium, acquire biomolecules on their surface to form coronas. Porous nanomaterials present an opportunity to sequester biomolecules and/or control their orientation at the surface. In this report, a metal-organic framework (MOF) shell around gold nanorods was compared to MOF nanocrystals as potential protein sponges to adsorb several common proteins (lysozyme, beta-lactoglobulin-A, and bovine serum albumin) and potentially control their orientation at the surface. Even after correction for surface area, MOF shell/gold nanorod materials adsorbed more protein than the analogous nanoMOFs. For the set of proteins and nanomaterials in this study, all protein-surface interactions were exothermic, as judged by isothermal titration calorimetry. Protein display at the surfaces was determined from limited proteolysis experiments, and it was found that protein orientation was dependent both on the nature of the nanoparticle surface and on the nature of the protein, with lysozyme and beta-lactoglobulin-A showing distinct molecular positioning.

Abstract
The properties of proteins at interfaces are important to many processes as well as in soft matter materials such as aqueous foam. Particularly, the protein interfacial behavior is strongly linked to different factors like the solution pH or the presence of electrolytes. Here, the nature of the electrolyte ions can significantly modify the interfacial properties of proteins. Therefore, molecular level studies on interfacial structures and charging states are needed. In this work, we addressed the effects of Y3+ and Nd3+ cations on the adsorption of the whey protein β-lactoglobulin (BLG) at air-water interfaces as the function of electrolyte concentration. Both cations caused very similar but dramatic changes at the interface and in the bulk solution. Here, measurements of the electrophoretic mobility and with vibrational sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy were applied and consistently showed a reversal of the BLG net charge at remarkably low ion concentrations of 30 (bulk) and 40 (interface) μM of Y3+ or Nd3+ for a BLG concentration of 15 μM. SFG spectra of carboxylate stretching vibrations from Asp or Glu residues of interfacial BLG showed significant changes in the resonance frequency, which we associate to specific and efficient binding of Y3+ or Nd3+ ions to the proteins carboxylate groups. Characteristic reentrant condensation for BLG moieties with bound trivalent ions was found in a broad concentration range around the point of zero net charge. The highest colloidal stability of BLG was found for ion concentrations <20 μM and >50 μM. Investigations on macroscopic foams from BLG solutions revealed the existence of structure-property relations between the interfacial charging state and the foam stability. In fact, a minimum in foam stability at 20 μM ion concentration was found when the interfacial net charge was negligible. At this concentration, we propose that the persistent BLG molecules and weakly charged BLG aggregates drive foam stability, while outside the bulk reentrant zone the electrostatic disjoining pressure inside foam lamellae dominates foam stability. Our results provide new information on the charge reversal at the liquid-gas interface of protein/ion dispersions. Therefore, we see our findings as an important step in the clarification of reentrant condensation effects at interfaces and their relevance to foam stability.

Abstract
The evaporation of colloidal solutions is frequently observed in nature and in everyday life. The investigation of the mechanisms taking place during the desiccation of biological fluids is currently a scientific challenge with potential biomedical and industrial applications. In the last few decades, seminal works have been performed mostly on dried droplets of saliva, urine and plasma. However, the full understanding of the drying process in biocolloids is far from being achieved and, notably, the impact of solute properties on the morphological characteristics of the evaporating droplets, such as colloid segregation, skin formation and crack pattern development, is still to be elucidated. For this purpose, the use of model colloidal solutions, whose rheological behavior is more easily deducible, could represent a significant boost. In this work, we compare the drying of droplets of whey proteins and casein micelles, the two main milk protein classes, to that of dispersions of silica particles and polymer-coated silica particles, respectively. The mechanical behavior of such biological colloids and model silica dispersions was investigated through the analysis of crack formation, and the measurements of their mechanical properties using indentation testing. The study reveals numerous analogies between dairy and the corresponding model systems, thus confirming the latter as a plausible powerful tool to highlight the signature of the matter at the molecular scale during the drying process.

Abstract
Gelation of proteins is one of the principal means to give desirable texture to food products. Gelation of individual proteins in aqueous solution has been investigated intensively in the past, but in most food products the system contains mixtures of different types of proteins. Therefore one needs to consider interaction between different proteins both before and during gelation. Most food proteins can be classified as globular proteins, but casein and gelatin are also important food proteins. In this review the focus is on gelation induced by heating or cooling, which is the most commonly used method. After briefly discussing general features of protein aggregation and gelation, the literature on gelation of mixtures of different types of globular proteins is reviewed as well as that of mixtures of globular proteins with gelatin or with casein. The effect on the gel stiffness and the microstructure of the gelled mixtures will be discussed in terms of different scenarios that can be envisaged: independent aggregation and gelation, co-aggregation and phase separation.

Abstract
Dry heating (DH) at 100 °C for 36 h of a whey protein isolate powder conditioned at pH 9.5 leads to the formation of stable, large and porous whey protein microparticles (PMs), resulting from the crosslinking of proteins inside the powder. These PMs could be used as high-viscosity food ingredients. Casein, present as a contaminant in whey protein powders, has been shown to become incorporated into the PMs. In this study, we investigated the effect of adding increasing amounts of sodium caseinate to whey protein powders on the formation of PMs during DH at 100 °C for 36 h. In addition, we studied PM formation during DH of a micellar casein-enriched milk protein powder (Casmic). The browning index of the dry-heated powders, and the size and water content of the microparticles were also characterized. We confirmed that sodium caseinate was incorporated into the PMs. The highest PM D[4,3] values (270 μm) were observed for powders with around 40% caseinate. Powders without added caseinate displayed D[4,3] values of 150 μm. The yield of conversion of proteins into PMs increased from 0.6 to 0.8 g/g with caseinate addition, whereas the amount of water entrapped in the PMs decreased from around 30 to 20 g/g. PMs were also formed by DH of the Casmic powder, but these particles were smaller, with sizes of around 80 μm. In conclusion, our study shows that the process of DH at pH 9.5 could be applied to all milk proteins to obtain PMs with functional properties that could be used in the food industry.

Abstract
Chemical modification of whey proteins allows manipulation of their characteristics, such as surface charge and hydrophobicity. Herein, we report the influence of hydrophobization accomplished by a preacetylation stage and a subsequent combined acetylation-heating process on some characteristics of whey proteins. Hydrophobization extensively (≥90%) acetylated the available free amino groups of whey proteins. The produced protein particles were nanoscaled (75 nm) and had a significantly low isoelectric point (3.70). Hydrophobization increased the β-sheet content of whey proteins and significantly decreased the solvent exposure of tyrosine residues. It also conferred a less compact tertiary structure to the proteins and decreased the extent of disulfide-bond formation by heating. The mobility of α-lactalbumin in nonreducing electrophoresis gel increased as a consequence of hydrophobization. Then, the ability of whey proteins to catalyze hydroquinone autoxidation was examined, and it was found that the activity decreased as a result of hydrophobization. The catalytic activity of the proteins was associated with the free-amino-group content, which determined the extent of cation-π attractive interactions; ζ-potential, which determined the extent of anion-π repulsive interactions; and π-stacking between hydrophobic residues and the electron cloud of the quinone ring.

Abstract
The covalent interactions between whey protein isolate (WPI) and rosmarinic acid (RosA) at two different conditions, alkaline (pH 9) and enzymatic (in the presence of tyrosinase, PPO), at room temperature with free atmospheric air were studied. The conjugates formed between WPI and RosA were characterized in terms of their physicochemical and functional properties. The changes in protein structure were analyzed by intrinsic fluorescence and binding of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid. The findings show that the covalent interactions caused a decrease in free amino and thiol groups and tryptophan content at both conditions. The decrease at enzymatic conditions was lower than at alkaline conditions. In addition, modified WPI at alkaline conditions exhibited higher antioxidative capacity compared to the modification at enzymatic conditions. However, WPI modified at enzymatic condition showed mild antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus LMG 10147 and MU50 compared to WPI modified at alkaline conditions and unmodified WPI (control). The modified WPI can be used as multifunctional ingredient into various food products with an additional health promoting effect of the bound phenolic compounds.

Abstract
Self-assembled peptide and protein amyloid nanostructures have traditionally been considered only as pathological aggregates implicated in human neurodegenerative diseases. In more recent times, these nanostructures have found interesting applications as advanced materials in biomedicine, tissue engineering, renewable energy, environmental science, nanotechnology and material science, to name only a few fields. In all these applications, the final function depends on: (i) the specific mechanisms of protein aggregation, (ii) the hierarchical structure of the protein and peptide amyloids from the atomistic to mesoscopic length scales and (iii) the physical properties of the amyloids in the context of their surrounding environment (biological or artificial). In this review, we will discuss recent progress made in the field of functional and artificial amyloids and highlight connections between protein/peptide folding, unfolding and aggregation mechanisms, with the resulting amyloid structure and functionality. We also highlight current advances in the design and synthesis of amyloid-based biological and functional materials and identify new potential fields in which amyloid-based structures promise new breakthroughs.

Abstract
Cells can enter into a dormant state when faced with unfavorable conditions. However, how cells enter into and recover from this state is still poorly understood. Here, we study dormancy in different eukaryotic organisms and find it to be associated with a significant decrease in the mobility of organelles and foreign tracer particles. We show that this reduced mobility is caused by an influx of protons and a marked acidification of the cytoplasm, which leads to widespread macromolecular assembly of proteins and triggers a transition of the cytoplasm to a solid-like state with increased mechanical stability. We further demonstrate that this transition is required for cellular survival under conditions of starvation. Our findings have broad implications for understanding alternative physiological states, such as quiescence and dormancy, and create a new view of the cytoplasm as an adaptable fluid that can reversibly transition into a protective solid-like state.

Abstract
All fully hydrated proteins undergo a distinct change in their dynamical properties at glass-transition temperature Tg. To determine indirectly this temperature for dry albumins, the viscosity measurements of aqueous solutions of human, equine, ovine, porcine and rabbit serum albumin have been conducted at a wide range of concentrations and at temperatures ranging from 278 K to 318 K. Viscosity-temperature dependence of the solutions is discussed on the basis of the three parameters equation resulting from Avramov's model. One of the parameter in the Avramov's equation is the glass-transition temperature. For all studied albumins, Tg of a solution monotonically increases with increasing concentration. The glass-transition temperature of a solution depends both on Tg for a dissolved dry protein Tg,p and water Tg,w. To obtain Tg,p for each studied albumin the modified Gordon-Taylor equation was applied. This equation describes the dependence of Tg of a solution on concentration, and Tg,p and a parameter depending on the strength of the protein-solvent interaction are the fitting parameters. Thus determined the glass-transition temperature for the studied dry albumins is in the range (215.4-245.5)K.

Abstract
We study the equilibrium liquid structure and dynamics of dilute and concentrated bovine eye lens α-crystallin solutions, using small-angle X-ray scattering, static and dynamic light scattering, viscometry, molecular dynamics simulations, and mode-coupling theory. We find that a polydisperse Percus-Yevick hard-sphere liquid-structure model accurately reproduces both static light scattering data and small-angle X-ray scattering liquid structure data from α-crystallin solutions over an extended range of protein concentrations up to 290 mg/mL or 49% vol fraction and up to ca. 330 mg/mL for static light scattering. The measured dynamic light scattering and viscosity properties are also consistent with those of hard-sphere colloids and show power laws characteristic of an approach toward a glass transition at α-crystallin volume fractions near 58%. Dynamic light scattering at a volume fraction beyond the glass transition indicates formation of an arrested state. We further perform event-driven molecular dynamics simulations of polydisperse hard-sphere systems and use mode-coupling theory to compare the measured dynamic power laws with those of hard-sphere models. The static and dynamic data, simulations, and analysis show that aqueous eye lens α-crystallin solutions exhibit a glass transition at high concentrations that is similar to those found in hard-sphere colloidal systems. The α-crystallin glass transition could have implications for the molecular basis of presbyopia and the kinetics of molecular change during cataractogenesis.

Abstract
The drying of milk concentrate droplets usually leads to specific particle morphology influencing their properties and their functionality. Understanding how the final shape of the particle is formed therefore represents a key issue for industrial applications. In this study, a new approach to the investigation of droplet-particle conversion is proposed. A single droplet of concentrated globular proteins extracted from milk was deposited onto a hydrophobic substrate and placed in a dry environment. Complementary methods (high-speed camera, confocal microscopy, and microbalance) were used to record the drying behavior of the concentrated protein droplets. Our results showed that whatever the initial concentration, particle formation included three dynamic stages clearly defined by the loss of mass and the evolution of the internal and external shapes of the droplet. A new and reproducible particle shape was related in this study. It was observed after drying a smooth, hemispherical cap-shaped particle, including a uniform protein shell and the nucleation of an internal vacuole. The particle morphology was strongly influenced by the drying environment, the contact angle, and the initial protein concentration, all of which governed the duration of the droplet shrinkage, the degree of buckling, and the shell thickness. These results are discussed in terms of specific protein behaviors in forming a predictable and a characteristic particle shape. The way the shell is formed may be the starting point in shaping particle distortion and thus represents a potential means of tuning the particle morphology.

Abstract
Protein solution rheology data in the biophysics literature have incompletely identified factors that govern hydrodynamics. Whereas spontaneous protein adsorption at the air/water (A/W) interface increases the apparent viscosity of surfactant-free globular protein solutions, it is demonstrated here that irreversible clusters also increase system viscosity in the zero shear limit. Solution rheology measured with double gap geometry in a stress-controlled rheometer on a surfactant-free Immunoglobulin solution demonstrated that both irreversible clusters and the A/W interface increased the apparent low shear rate viscosity. Interfacial shear rheology data showed that the A/W interface yields, i.e., shows solid-like behavior. The A/W interface contribution was smaller, yet nonnegligible, in double gap compared to cone-plate geometry. Apparent nonmonotonic composition dependence of viscosity at low shear rates due to irreversible (nonequilibrium) clusters was resolved by filtration to recover a monotonically increasing viscosity-concentration curve, as expected. Although smaller equilibrium clusters also existed, their size and effective volume fraction were unaffected by filtration, rendering their contribution to viscosity invariant. Surfactant-free antibody systems containing clusters have complex hydrodynamic response, reflecting distinct bulk and interface-adsorbed protein as well as irreversible cluster contributions. Literature models for solution viscosity lack the appropriate physics to describe the bulk shear viscosity of unstable surfactant-free antibody solutions.

Abstract
Nanoscale structures of whey protein isolate (WPI) pretreated by microbial transglutaminase (mTGase) and subsequent heating were studied in this work and were correlated to zeta-potential, surface hydrophobicity, thermal denaturation properties, and macroscopic turbidity and viscosity. Dispersions of 5% w/v WPI were pretreated by individual or sequential steps of preheating at 80 °C for 15 min and mTGase, used at 2.0-10.2 U/g WPI for 1-15 h, before adjustment of the pH to 7.0 and to 0-100 mM NaCl for heating at 80 °C for 15 and 90 min. The zeta potential and surface hydrophobicity of WPI increased after all pretreatment steps. Preheating increased cross-linking reactivity of WPI by mTGase, corresponding to significantly increased denaturation temperature. Particle size analysis and atomic force microscopy revealed that structures of sequentially pretreated WPI remained stable after heating at 100 mM NaCl, corresponding to transparent dispersions. Conversely, WPI pretreated by one step aggregated at only 100 mM NaCl and resulted in turbid dispersions. Besides reporting a practical approach to produce transparent beverages, nanoscale phenomena in the present study are important for understanding whey protein structures in relevant applications.

Abstract
Understanding how proteins behave in highly concentrated systems is a major issue in many fields of research, including biology, biophysics, and chemical engineering. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive (1)H NMR study of molecular mobility in dilute to highly concentrated dispersions of the exact same protein (casein) but organized in two distinct supramolecular forms: spongelike casein micelles or soft casein aggregates. Both relaxometry and diffusometry experiments were performed, so that three different parameters are reported: spin-spin relaxation rates of non-water protons (1/T(2,ne)), spin-spin relaxation rates of water protons (1/T(2,e+w)), and water self-diffusion coefficients (D(w)). The results are discussed in an effort to understand the respective effects of protein crowding and protein supramolecular organization on each mobility indicator. We also examine if connections exist between the observed changes in molecular mobility and the already documented changes in rheological and osmotic properties of casein dispersions as concentration is increased.

Abstract
The fibrillization of peptides is relevant to many diseases based on the deposition of amyloids. The formation of fibrils is being intensively studied, especially in terms of nanotechnology applications, where fibrillar peptide hydrogels are used for cell scaffolds, as supports for functional and responsive biomaterials, biosensors, and nanowires. This Review is concerned with fundamental aspects of the self-assembly of peptides into fibrils, and discusses both natural amyloid-forming peptides and synthetic materials, including peptide fragments, copolymers, and amphiphiles.
