  • Translocation of non-natural chemical entities through anthrax protective antigen pore
    Patent number: 9498538
    Abstract: Disclosed is a new approach for delivering compounds and drugs to the cytosol of living cells through the use of engineered protein transporters. The engineered protein transporters include a pore and a pore specific delivery protein, wherein a reagent such as a drug is attached to one or more of the engineered protein transporters.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 21, 2013
    Date of Patent: November 22, 2016
    Assignees: Massachusetts Institute of Technology, President and Fellows of Harvard College
    Inventors: Xiaoli Liao, Amy E. Rabideau, Bradley L. Pentelute, Jingjing Ling, Gizem Akçay, John Collier

  • PROTEIN RETROSPLICING ENABLED BY A DOUBLE LIGATION REACTION
    Publication number: 20150152134
    Abstract: Proteins containing a C-terminal thioester are important intermediates in semi-synthesis. Currently there is one main method for the synthesis of protein thioesters that relies upon the use of engineered inteins. The invention involves, in some aspects a method, utilizing Sortase A, for preparation of recombinant proteins containing a C-terminal ?thioester. This new method for double ligatation is useful for synthesizing new or naturally occurring molecules such as a protein thioester.
