Intracellular delivery of proteins: Aurin 1.2, an efficient non-endosomal protein delivery platform
To fully realize the therapeutic potential of proteins, exogenous proteins need to access intracellular targets. Since the vast majority of proteins cannot spontaneously cross cell membranes, a range of delivery platforms have been developed. These…
