| Abstract | Background The inability of biologics to pass the plasma membrane prevents their development as therapeutics for intracellular targets. To address the lack of methods for cytosolic protein delivery, we used the type III secretion system (T3SS) of Y. enterocolitica, which naturally injects bacterial proteins into eukaryotic host cells, to deliver monobody proteins into cancer cells. Monobodies are small synthetic binding proteins that can inhibit oncogene signaling in cancer cells with high selectivity upon intracellular expression. Here, we engineered monobodies targeting the BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase for efficient delivery by the T3SS, quantified cytosolic delivery and target engagement in cancer cells and monitored inhibition of BCR::ABL1 signaling. Methods In vitro assays were performed to characterize destabilized monobodies (thermal shift assay and isothermal titration calorimetry) and to assess their secretion by the T3SS. Immunoblot assays were used to study the translocation of monobodies into different cell lines and to determine the intracellular concentration after translocation. Split-Nanoluc assays were performed to understand translocation and degradation kinetics and to evaluate target engagement after translocation. Phospho flow cytometry and apoptosis assays were performed to assess the functional effects of monobody translocation into BCR:ABL1-expressing leukemia cells. Results To enable efficient translocation of the stable monobody proteins by the T3SS, we engineered destabilized mutant monobodies that retained high affinity target binding and were efficiently injected into different cell lines. After injection, the cytosolic monobody concentrations reached mid-micromolar concentrations considerably exceeding their binding affinity. We found that injected monobodies targeting the BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase selectively engaged their target in the cytosol. The translocation resulted in inhibition of oncogenic signaling and specifically induced apoptosis in BCR::ABL1-dependent cells, consistent with the phenotype when the same monobody was intracellularly expressed. Conclusion Hence, we establish the T3SS of Y. enterocolitica as a highly efficient protein translocation method for monobody delivery, enabling the selective targeting of different oncogenic signaling pathways and providing a foundation for future therapeutic application against intracellular targets. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
