Incorporation of recombinant proteins into extracellular vesicles by Lactococcus cremoris by Tina Vida Plavec, Kristina Žagar Soderžnik, Giulia Della Pelle, Špela Zupančič, Robert Vidmar, Aleš Berlec

“…Mass spectrometry analyses confirmed the presence of recombinant proteins in the EVs fraction, with amounts ranging from 13.17 to 100%, highlighting their significant incorporation into the vesicles, together with intrinsic L. cremoris NZ9000 proteins that were either more abundant in the cytoplasm (ribosomal proteins, metabolic enzymes) or present in the membrane. The presence of the most abundant lactococcal proteins in EVs fraction suggests that protein cargo-loading of EVs in L. cremoris NZ9000 is not regulated. …”
