We developed a system to directly produce gold nanoparticles in cells by intracellular mineralization in lower concentration than conventional methods using a peptide consisting of a cell-penetrating sequence and a gold ion-binding sequence. Furthermore, we could control the uniquely shaped gold nanostructures that were produced by changing peptide structures.
