The mechanism of this protection is unknown, but one might speculate that it helps shield reactive sites on TGFβ1, preventing undesirable protein−polymer conjugation.
However, since the toxicity of the SiO2 nanoparticles was completely inhibited in the presence of serum, the more likely explanation is that serum proteins shield reactive nanoparticle surfaces that otherwise would elicit cellular toxicity.

Structures containing inorganic pyrophosphate or a substrate analogue bound in the active site display ordering of various loops proximal to the active site, consistent with a closed protein conformation that shields reactive carbocation intermediates from solvent.
In this way, the complex could shield the reactive thioester protein from inadvertent binding to self tissues until sensing of pathogens via the LRIM LRR domains resulted in targeted thioester protein release.
It is notable that the TatBCHis preparation does not contain disulfide-linked TatC molecules (Fig. 2B) suggesting that the TatB protomers shield the reactive TatC cysteine(s) to some extent.
The differences between this behaviour and that of a lower molecular weight macromonomer (3700 g mol−1) which formed both siloxane homopolymer and a crosslinked network is believed to be related to shielding of the methacryloyloxypropyl reactive groups.
A four-arm-structured sequence-defined cationic oligomer KK[HK[ H-Sph-K 3HC]2]2 was designed and synthesized on solid-phase, containing additional lysine residues not only for improved pDNA polyplex stability, but also providing attachment points for subsequent polyplex functionalization with amine-reactive shielding polymers.
Has this substantial increase in the relative amount of protein only evolved to shield the rRNA from damaging reactive oxygen species as speculated by a number of groups, or are there other novel functions still waiting to be disclosed?
Such a function is also supported by the observation that cob(I alamin is highly reactive and needs to be shielded from the environment [ 30].
