Organelle-Selective Gene Delivery and Expression in the Chloroplast in planta using Chitosan-Complexed Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Carriers
Invention type: Technology
/
Case number: #20537
In one aspect, a composition can include an organelle, and a nanoparticle having a zeta potential of less than - 10 mV or greater than 10 mV contained within the organelle. In a preferred embodiment, the organelle can be a chloroplast and the nanoparticle can be a single-walled carbon nanotube associated with a strongly anionic or strongly cationic polymer.
