Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a free service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are accessible to all readers and citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article. Note that technical editing may introduce minor changes to the manuscript text and/or graphics which could affect content, and all legal disclaimers and ethical guidelines that apply to the journal pertain. ACS cannot be held responsible for errors or consequences arising from the use of information contained in these “Just Accepted” manuscripts.

Figure 1. Construction of a protein delivery platform by combining a target-specific repebody and translocation domain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A. (A) Schematic representation of the delivery platform composed of an EGFR-specific repebody and translocation domain (TDP). EGFP was used as a protein cargo and fused to the C-terminal end of the translocation domain. (B) Western blot analysis of intracellular delivery of EGFP in a dose dependent manner. (C) Target-specific EGFP delivery of different cancer cell lines through receptor-mediated endocytosis. (D) Intracellular delivery of Rb-TDP-EGFP in A431 cells. A431 cells were incubated with Cell tracker or ER tracker for 30 min and washed with DPBS. (E) The Z-stack images of A431 cells treated with 2µM of Rb-TDP-EGFP for 6 h. Scale bar = 20 µm. 119x113mm (300 x 300 DPI)

Figure 2. Intracellular delivery of EGFP via the retrograde transport pathway. (A) Schematic representation of cytosolic delivery of EGFP. The delivery system utilized receptor-mediated endocytosis and retrograde transport pathway. (B) Time-course analysis of the localization of delivered EGFP. Fluorescence images were obtained at different time intervals after treatment of A431 cells with Rb-TDP-EGFP (1 µM) and ER tracker (500 nM). Green, EGFP; red, ER tracker; blue, DAPI; Scale bar = 20 µm. 51x79mm (300 x 300 DPI)

Figure 3. Schematic representation for a target-specific translocation of gelonin using the delivery platform. (A) Gelonin(Glo) was genetically fused to the C-terminus of the translocation domain of the delivery platform as a cytotoxic protein cargo. (B) Viability test for various cell lines expressing different EGFR levels. (C) TUNEL assay for in situ detection of fragmented DNA on day 3 after treatment with 1µM of Rb-TDP-Glo. MCF-7 was used as the negative control. Scale bar = 20 µm. 102x119mm (300 x 300 DPI)
