Proximity Proteomics Maps Candidate Cellular Uptake Pathways for Cell‐Derived Nanovesicles

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
TurboID‐based dual‐sided proteomics compares mechanically generated cell‐derived nanovesicles with naturally secreted small extracellular vesicles. Vesicle proteomes define candidate interaction signatures, while recipient‐cell proximity labelling identifies exposure‐associated proteins.
