Abstract

The invention discloses an application of a simian virus 40 capsid protein VP1 serving as a cell transmembrane protein. Firstly, the VP1 is revealed to be a cell-penetrating protein, and then the VP1 protein is subjected to fusion expression with other proteins and can carry an exogenous protein to penetrate through a cell membrane so as to enter cells and be localized in cytoplasm. An experiment of the invention proves that the VP1 protein can carry a mCherry fluorescent protein and a cancer suppressor protein to penetrate through a cell membrane so as to enter cells and be localized in cytoplasm. The invention provides a simple and efficient cell transduction system, and realizes subcellular localization in cytoplasm, and a constructed VP1-P53 protein is expected to have potential applications in the aspects of tumor treatment and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cell transduction, and more specifically relates to the application of simian virus 40 capsid protein VP1 as a cell penetrating protein. The main capsid protein VP1 of Simian virus 40 can penetrate the mammalian cell membrane, enter the cell and localize in the cytoplasm. The SV40VP1 protein is fused with other proteins, and VP1 can transduce the fused foreign protein into the cell and localize in the cytoplasm. Background technique [0002] With the development of molecular biology theory and technology, new molecular therapeutic measures based on gene therapy, targeted protein drugs or peptide drugs have emerged, but these therapeutic methods are often based on the delivery of macromolecular substances into cells. Due to the selective permeability of the cell membrane, substances with strong polarity and large molecular weight such as proteins, polypeptides and DNA cannot pass through freely, and must ...
