Delivery of external proteins into the cytoplasm using protein capsules modified with IgG on the surface, created from the amphiphilic two helix-bundle protein OLE-ZIP.

This study explores a new method for delivering therapeutic proteins into specific cells using OLE-ZIP capsules that present IgG. OLE-ZIP capsules is a spherical caspules prepared from amphihilic dimetic coiled-coil peptide, OLE-ZIP. Upon presenting cetuximab, these capsules showed preferential uptake in A431 cells and increased cytotoxicity when loaded with RNase A.
