Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the field of nanocarriers and nanoformulations, in particular to intein-mediated nanocarriers, construction methods and applications thereof, and nanoformulations capable of simultaneously delivering antigens and immune enhancers.
- the C-terminus of the protein is the main site for the insertion of the cargo molecule gene, which is used to load the cargo protein on the surface of the nanocarrier.
- the C-terminus of the protein is in a "meta-stable state", and the smaller protein molecules of the C-terminus gene fusion are usually misassembly of the recombinant protein, which limits its application prospects.
- Nano-delivery technology is becoming increasingly important in biomedical fields such as vaccine design, targeted drug delivery, and live imaging diagnosis.
- studies using the properties of encapsulin protein to encapsulate the C-terminal protein with signal peptide and developing it as a cargo transport carrier have been studies using the properties of encapsulin protein to encapsulate the C-terminal protein with signal peptide and developing it as a cargo transport carrier.
