Pakistan, May 16 -- Scientists at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) have developed a breakthrough nanoscale system that can deliver multiple proteins into living cells to function as a miniature "drug factory," potentially opening new pathways for targeted disease treatment.

The research demonstrates that six different proteins can be encapsulated and transported into mammalian cells using engineered nanoscale carriers. Once inside, the proteins work together in a coordinated sequence to produce violacein, a compound with potential therapeutic properties.
