Ferritin nanocage protein fusion: AjinomotoRecent Research Landscape

Therapeutic instability and rapid clearance increase dosing frequency and costs. Engineering multi-domain protein architectures stabilizes the molecule to extend half-life and improve targeting precision.

What technical problems is Ajinomoto addressing in Ferritin nanocage protein fusion?

Inefficient protein conformational recovery

(3)evidences

The keywords highlight the necessity of refolding and encapsulation processes to overcome non-functional protein states. Preventing irreversible aggregation during synthesis ensures high yields of bioactive supramolecular structures.

Low payload encapsulation efficiency

(2)evidences

Rapid systemic clearance and enzymatic degradation limit the therapeutic efficacy of monomeric proteins. Increasing molecular size and stability through fusion prevents premature renal filtration and proteolysis.
