Protein Delivery System Containing a Nickel‐Immobilized Polymer for Multimerization of Affinity‐Purified His‐Tagged Proteins Enhances Cytosolic Transfer

Recombinant proteins with cytosolic or nuclear activities are emerging as tools for interfering with cellular functions. Because such tools rely on vehicles for crossing the plasma membrane we developed a protein delivery system consisting in the assembly of pyridylthiourea-grafted polyethylenimine (πPEI) with affinity-purified His-tagged proteins pre-organized onto a nickel-immobilized polymeric guide. The guide was prepared by...
