Exosome engineering for efficient intracellular delivery of soluble proteins using optically reversible protein–protein interaction module
Abstract
Exosomes have been identified as promising vehicles for the in vivodelivery of therapeutic molecules. Here the authors design a system to load protein cargos into exosomes during their biogenesis using optogenetic control of protein-protein interactions between the cargo and an exosome-localized partner.
