  • Cytosolic delivery of materials with endosome-disrupting colloids
    Patent number: 9284188
    Abstract: A facile procedure to deliver nanocrystals to the cytosol of live cells that is both rapid and general. The technique employs a unique cationic core-shell polymer colloid that directs nanocrystals to the cytosol of living cells within a few hours of incubation. The present methods and compositions enable a host of advanced applications arising from efficient cytosolic delivery of nanocrystal imaging probes: from single particle tracking experiments to monitoring protein-protein interactions in live cells for extended periods.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 2, 2011
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2016
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Brett A. Helms, Andrea R. Bayles
