Abstract:
Protein cages are ideal scaffolds for presenting proteins of interest (POIs), but controlled POI release remains challenging. We engineered the Mi3 protein cage with chemically inducible dimerization domains and a photocleavable protein, enabling controlled recruitment and release of POIs both in vitro and in E. coli cells.
