Abstract:Light can be used to regulate protein interactions with a high degree of
spatial and temporal precision. Photo-switchable systems therefore allow
the development of controllable protein complexes that can influence
various cellular and molecular processes. Here we describe a plant
virus-based nanoparticle shuttle for the distribution of proteins that
can be released when exposed to light. Potato virus X (PVX) is often
used as a presentation system for heterologous proteins and epitopes,
and has ideal propertie… Show more
