Protein enriched micro-vesicles and methods of making and using the same are provided. Aspects of the methods include maintaining a cell having a membrane-associated protein comprising a first dimerization domain and a target protein having a second dimerization domain under conditions sufficient to produce a micro-vesicle from the cell, wherein the micro-vesicle includes the target protein. Also provided are cells, reagents and kits that find use in making the micro-vesicles, as well as methods of using the micro-vesicles, e.g., in research and therapeutic applications.

The present invention is related to a targeted type shell for drug delivery system. The object of the present invention is to provide the targeted type shell for DDS, which comprises a carbosilane dendrimer containing a silole produced by which is formed by utilizing the reaction between thiol group and alkyl halide, and a targeted protein containing a labeled proteins such as green fluorescent protein with a target recognition site. The shell may incorporate compounds having a variety of molecular weight and biopolymers, and selectively deliver them into targeted cells.

Provided herein are peptides comprising an amino acid sequence having at least about 85% sequence identity to RYRPRAPIIAVT (SEQ ID NO: 1). These cationic peptides inhibit PKM2 methylation and may be used in the treatment of breast cancer and other diseases or conditions in which PKM2 is overexpressed. Such PKM2 peptides may be delivered to cancer cells using pH sensitive unimolecular nanoparticles comprising anionic polymers.
