Conjugation of antibody fragments to ferritin protein cage for targeted delivery to cancer cells.
Ferritin is engineered as a targeted carrier for therapeutic and diagnostic agents. It is a naturally occurring biomaterial and functions in iron homeostasis in various organisms. The ferritin in this study is a protein cage derived from an archaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus with unique self-assembling...
