Abstract  

Many studies have showed epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) were overexpressed in various types of cancer cells. The S3, an EGFR-binding domain derived from vaccinia virus growth factor (VGF), when fused to HE, a heparin binding domain derived from heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF),could enhance its tumor-homing ability. The incubation experiment of the fusion protein EGFP-S3-HE/EGFP-S3-HE-TATm (TAT is cell penetrating peptide) with normal/tumor cells proved that both the recombinant proteins had tumor cell specific targeting ability and significant penetrating effect.The fusion of S3-HE-TATmwith MAP30, a ribosome inactivation protein derived from Momordica charantia, significantly increased the inhibitory effect of MAP30 to tumor cells but still remained relatively low level effect to normal cells, Therefore, S3-HE-TATm is a new type of drug delivery vector for tumor targeting treatment.
