Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows for quick creation of small particles called nanoparticles containing iron oxide with high affinity towards certain proteins found on infected cells like HepG2 cell membranes. These tiny particles are then attached to magnetic microparticle carriers which help transport them through blood vessels into targeted areas where they stimulate immune responses against these pathogens. Additionally, this technology could have potential applications in treating diseases such as liver cirrhosis caused due to excessive alcohol consumption.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving the stability and activity of proteins involved in viruses like honeycomb shaped particles called FeaNPs, while maintaining their original structure and function during manufacturing processes. Previous attempts were made towards modifying these structures but did not fully address all aspects mentioned above.

Abstract

The invention provides a ferritin nanoparticle carrier for preparing a vaccine, and also provides a vaccine based on the ferritin nanoparticle carrier, and a preparation method thereof. The ferritin nanoparticle carrier is formed by self-assembling ferritin with fuse-expressed SpyCatcher, or is formed by self-assembling ferritin with fuse-expressed SpyTag, the vaccine further comprises an antigenwith fuse-expressed SpyTag when the nanoparticle carrier is formed by self-assembling the ferritin with fuse-expressed SpyCatcher, and the vaccine further comprises an antigen with fuse-expressed SpyCatcher when the nanoparticle carrier is formed by self-assembling the ferritin with fuse-expressed SpyTag, wherein the ferritin is covalently linked to the antigen by a SpyCatcher-SpyTag interaction.
