Programming protein nanomaterials to respond to changes in environmental conditions is a current challenge for protein design and is important for targeted delivery of biologics. Here we describe the design of octahedral non-porous nanoparticles with a targeting antibody on the two-fold symmetry axis, a designed trimer programmed to disassemble below a tunable pH transition point on the three-fold axis, and a designed tetramer on the four-fold symmetry axis. Designed non-covalent interfaces guide cooperative nanoparticle assembly from independently purified components, and a cryo-EM density map closely matches the computational design model. The designed nanoparticles can package protein and nucleic acid payloads, are endocytosed following antibody-mediated targeting of cell surface receptors, and undergo tunable pH-dependent disassembly at pH values ranging between 5.9 and 6.7. The ability to incorporate almost any antibody into a non-porous pH-dependent nanoparticle opens up new routes to antibody-directed targeted delivery.
设计对环境条件变化做出响应的蛋白质纳米材料是目前蛋白质设计的一个挑战,对于生物制剂的靶向递送非常重要。在这里,我们描述了具有靶向抗体在二倍对称轴上的八面体无孔纳米颗粒的设计,设计的三聚体在三倍对称轴上的可调 pH 转换点以下编程为解组装,以及在四倍对称轴上的设计四聚体。设计的非共价界面指导从独立纯化的组件进行协同纳米颗粒组装,并且冷冻电镜密度图与计算设计模型非常吻合。设计的纳米颗粒可以包装蛋白质和核酸有效负载,在抗体介导的细胞表面受体靶向作用后被内吞,并在 pH 值在 5.9 到 6.7 之间的可调 pH 依赖性解组装。将几乎任何抗体纳入无孔 pH 依赖性纳米颗粒的能力为抗体导向的靶向递开辟了新途径。
