| Abstract |
Intracellular delivery of biomolecules is a prerequisite for genetic techniques such as recombinant engineering and genome editing. Realizing the full potential of this technology requires the development of safe and effective methods for delivering protein tools into cells. In this study, we demonstrated the spontaneous internalization of exogenous proteins into intact cells and root tissue of whole plants of Arabidopsis thaliana. We termed this internalization phenomenon as protein Delivery Independent of Vehicles or Equipment (DIVE), which efficiently delivered genome engineering proteins including Cre recombinase and zinc-finger nucleases (ZFN) into plant cells. Using protein DIVE, we achieved less toxic protein delivery than electroporation with up to 94% efficiency in Arabidopsis cell culture and 19% genome modification in Arabidopsis plants that was maintained in regenerated tissue. This work illustrates the potential of protein DIVE for a wide range of applications, including genome engineering in plants.
