  • Patent number: 12091437
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a fusion protein useful for treating a non-nuclear organelle associated disorder, such as a genetic disorder, e.g., Friedrich's Ataxia. The fusion protein may comprise a protein of interest to be delivered to a non-nuclear organelle; an organelle targeting sequence (OTS); a cell penetrating peptide (CPP); and a target enhancing sequence (TES); wherein the CPP is capable of interference with delivery of the protein of interest to the non-nuclear organelle; and wherein the TES prevents said interference by the CPP. The fusion protein may also comprise a protein of interest to be delivered to a non-nuclear organelle; a CPP and a TES. The present disclosure also provides methods for treating a non-nuclear organelle associated disorder by administering the fusion protein to a subject in need thereof.
