Light-chain apoferritin lacks ferroxidase activity, which can be supplemented with Pt-nanoparticles. The hybrid bioinorganic nanoparticle outperforms its heavy-chain pendant in terms of ferroxidase activity, mineralization ability and inhibition resistance. Being active in a cellular environment it regulates the iron homeostasis.
