SBI also offers a selection of pre-built targeting XStamp Lentivectors, as well as a clone-your-own XStamp Cloning and Expression Vector:
How It Works
Engineering exosomes with specific surface proteins
XStamp is based upon a C-terminal fusion of the C1C2 domain from the protein MFG-E8, which is targeted to the exosome surface. Protein sequences that are fused to the XStamp tag will efficiently display the protein ligand fusion on the surfaces of secreted exosomes.
Supporting Data

Figure 1. Both XStamp-NCAM and XStamp-BHP1 can target exosomes to neurons. METHODS: The XStamp-NCAM Lentivector (Cat.# XSTP721PA-1) and the XStamp-BHP1 Lentivector (Cat.# XSTP722PA-1), were transfected separately into mouse MSCs along with SBI’s XPack-GFP construct (Cat.# XPAK530PA-1), which packages GFP into the interior of exosomes to enable fluorescent tracking. Exosomes were isolated after 48 hours, and added to Neuro2a neuroblastoma cells in culture. The neurons were monitored for GFP delivery using phase and fluorescence microscopy after a 24-hour incubation.
